Of Broening
Robert J. Young, former councilmanic candidate in the 17th ward, is being boosted by a number of his friends for appointment on the Prison Board, it was learned in political circles this week.
A petition headed by Ward Executive John Badger and signed by several leaders in the 17th Ward made appearance down town some time ago and his friends are actively working for him. While the position pays no salary it carries, besides prestige opportunities of far reaching affords.
ASST. CITY SOLICITOR
Another office around which considerable activity is being manifested is that of Deputy City Solicitorship. Practically every Republican leader in the group agrees that Mayor Broening should see that some lawyer is placed in the City Attorneys office. Arthur K. Briscoe, the office, and for many prominent in Republi-cation, is being spoken of favorably for this place. J. Howard Payne, one of the candidates for Council in the recent election is also a candidate. It was also learned this week that John Badger. 17th Ward Executive, will seek a place as District Supervisor of Streets. In the capacity he districts over which he could be place would have charge of repairs in the
The Republican steering committee, it is learned, is studying the political chess board with an eye to the future and realizes that the race voters are not as easily placated as they have been in the good old days when the name "Republican Party" was enough to corral their attention time. One of their difficulties is that they haven't enough plums to go around.
LOOKING AHEAD
But they are looking ahead to the general election. Already prospective states are slowly forming. Some say Mayor Breening is headed toward Annapolis and Roland Marianth Washington. Wayway it is learned that, Roland Marchant is at the steering wheel of the party at

State House On Fire
```markdown

BOSTON—Little Mary Ellen Harris 11, read of the Saco-Vanzett case in the newspapers and attempted to do her bit to help them by setting the Mass. State house on fire.
The child, who has been ill for some time, was terror-stricken when a nordge of State House guards, watchmen, and police, bore down upon her. She said she had found a paper with a match in it, and the urge had come to her to set fire to the paper, then throw it into the paper-filled waste box.
Police Stumped The Fire Out Russell D. Harris, father of the girl, said he had no interest in the Saco-Vanzett case, except that he had read of it in the newspapers, and that he had no knowledge that the police understood anything about the case.
Police are inquiring into Mary Ellen's sanity.
ALABAMA K.P.
OFFICIALS WIN
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (ANP) - Complete vindication for officials in the Alabama Pythian tangle is claimed as a result of recent orders of the court dismissing a plea for receivability. Charges also that R. A. Blount, who for 20 years has headed the organization, had wasted and dissipated the funds of the organization have been met by reports showing that present organization has assets totalling over $600,000, while its liabilities are only $17,000. Friends of the Blount regime declare that the whole fight has simmered down to nothing and that was merely a attempt to armized the group of disgruntled members of the organization who had failed to attain their ambition.

HIRAM EVANS ACCUSED
Affidavits Say He Gave Command To 20,000 Before Deadly Clash
PITTSBURGH, PA.—Former members of the Ku Klux Klan turned on that order here Saturday and laid a fatal fiot, a lynching and a kidnapping directly at their door.
The accusations came in the form of an answer filed in the Federal Court and upon which an order was issued directing the hooded order to show cause why it should not be restrained from opening in Pennsylvania and a receiver named over its properties in the state. The rule was made returnable Sept. 5.
Lynched Man
Among the charges was one directed against Sam D. Rich, white, identified as the acting Grand Dragon of the Klan, who is said in the petition to have some够够 of Mr. Klansman from his Pittsburgh office on July 8, providing one of them with his own imperial robe, and directing the lynching of a race man near him were also named as members of the band including three Exalted Cyclops. The petition also gives details of the kidnapping of a four-year-old white child on July 4 in the responsibility of the fatal hit on a man who was killed, directly on Imperial Wizard Hiram Evans, whom it says made an inflammatory address before giving the command to 30,000 Klansman to many, many whom were armed with deadly wear.

SAY LADS TOOK
200 LB. SAFE
WASHINGTON—Two youths, Louis Walkers, 19, of 619 W Street and Fred Russell, 15, of 410 V street northwest. were arrested Monday night in connection with four assaults safe robberies. In one case they were charged in carrying off a 300 pound safe of the Sanitary Grocery store. 3511 Twelfth street, to Martinsburg, W. Va. where it was abandoned and $300 stolen from it.

Dr. Stokes In Durham
DURHAM, N. C. — Dr. E. Veny
Stokes formerly of Baltimore, Md. is
now associated with the Peoples Drug
Stone; on Chapel Hill St. here.
The slaying of a local policeman by a criminal he was about to arrest is a regrettable local affair.
Little better or worse is it than the seven other cases in which local police have been killed in the line of duty during the past thirty years.
It's significant, however that half the number of police killings have occurred in the Northwestern District. Of these, two were killed by a mad man, and one by a white gunman.
These figures do not prove it, but the AFRO is frank to state that the anti-police sentiment in the northwest is more pronounced than in any other section of the city.
There are two reasons for this. One is that no other group of police is as free in the use of its guns, black jacks and clubs as the Northwestern District men.
The feeling in the community is that rowdy acts of police must have the backing of Police Captain Charles Lastner else they would not persist after continued complaints have been filed, and police rebuked in the open court by the criminal court judges.
The AFRO has said before that the northwestern police as a whole could well afford to take lessons in deportment from the Northeastern District where a policeman can make an arrest without having "to subdue" his prisoner.
The other factor in anti-police sentiment in Baltimore is the question in the public mind why any single race should have the monopoly upon service as peace officers.
Why is there a virtual agreement between Governor Ritchie and Police Commissioner Gaither to bar colored men from the police force, by keeping them from taking preliminary examinations?
There are policemen on the force of limited intelligence and limited information about the city. The pay is that of ordinary labor.
Why, the community asks, are the posts open to those who possess certain complexions rather than certain definite police qualifications?
It's difficult for a black American of six generations to understand how for example, a German of this generation can land on the police force from which he with superior qualifications is barred.
The community understands by now what race prejudice on the city police force amounts to and the colored part of the community, however quiescent it may seem, re-sents it bitterly.
The AFRO deplores the type of Maryland Free State logic which argues that a black man can not drive a city garbage cart, push a street sweeper's broom and swing an espantoon in his own neighborhood.
If black folk had a chance at the job and failed, there would be some reason for it. If Baltimore were any different from other cities there would be some reason for it.
The AFRO has laid before the governor and commissioner letters from nearly a score of cities, larger and smaller than Baltimore, which employ colored police. Some of them are as close as Philadelphia and Washington. Some are as far south as Knoxville, Tenn., Tulsa, Okla., and Austin, Texas.
Washington. Philadelphia, Chicago and New York have each nearly a hundred colored policemen. Letters from police heads printed on another page show three such police officers in Knoxville, 20 in Indianapolis and 123 in Chicago.
Isn't it an anomaly that any one group should desire the unloyal and hazardous job of "policing" another?
Is it not to use the words of Mr. Edward F. Frazier "a species of insanity" on the part of the state officials who say that white men only shall have the monopoly on being shot to death preserving peace and good order in our neighborhoods?
We express again our regret at the slaying of Policeman William F. Doehler. We hope that the slayer will be captured and not "beaten to death." as have understood from threats of police, but convicted and punished by the proper authorities.
To this hope we add the assertion that the blood of officer Doehler should be laid at the door of three officials, Captain Lastner, Commissioner Gaither and Governor Ritchie, whose policy of repression and prejudice sent him to his death.

DANIEL CREDITT SCHOOL HEAD DIES AT 57
Principal Of School 104

Over,A Year
WAS TO BE RETIRED
THIS SCHOOL TERM
Application Made For Re-
Daniel C. Creditt, principal of Elliott Elementary School, 104, Carey and school streets died at his home 1316 N. Carey street early Thursday morning.
Mr. Creditt had been confined to his home by illness for over a year and had made application for retirement from the schools for physical disability. It was understood that this was to have gone into effect in September.
He was born in Baltimore, fifty-five years ago as the son of Bushrod and Mary (Lindsey) Creditt. An elder brother, the late Rev. William A. Creditt, became a distinguished Baptist pastor in Philadelphia.
He was a member of the School Masters' Club and a trustee of Downtown小学. Fellow school proxibals have been asked to serve on pall bearers.
Due to the absence of Dr. David E. Weglein, superintendent of Baltimore public schools, no official statement could be obtained from the school board. He is survived by four children, Mrs. Addie Creditt Fernandis, Miss Thelma Creditt, Miss Rose-married, Mrs. Roberta Creditt-Ole, a sister, Mrs. Amie Reed and a for-profit, who has been divorced and married, Mrs. Roberta Creditt. Mr. Creditt graduated from the local high school in the class of 1891. The next year he was appointed teacher at the then Eack" school so she became the teachers were on the second and third floors over a feed store at Gold and Pennsylvania avenue. He was moved to the "Tin Factory" at Gold and Carey streets as principal and on 1901, 1908, she became principal of School 180, Caroline street, near Bank at the salary of $866 a year. Mr. Creditt of ten said that this was an unusually large sum in those days. Mr. Creditt was known and loved by hundreds and girls who passed through his classes. Strict in discipline and a giant in size and strength, he used a rattain in the old days of corporal punishment, and the largest boys knew that they had to "walk the chalk line" in Mr. Creditt's name.
After 23 years at Caroline and Bank street, Mr. Creditt was transferred to the Elliott School 104. Carey and School streets. He had the happy faculty of winning the friendship of parents and teachers. Private acts of charity astonished even his friends. He is said to have had unusual success with the night school at 112 and the school administration thought his best work was done with arrangements for the funeral had not been completed Thursday afternoon.
RACE HATRED IN OHIO CAMPAIGN

Alleging that the race is gradually but surely ousti<sup>1</sup> whites from their west side homes and that Negro men were associating with white women about the hills of the city in the cool of the evening, Dr. Nickum is calling upon the constituency "to keep the Negroes in their place."
the majority of the citizens, however, seem to be opposed to the portation of immigrants in Ohio and are expected to take care of Dr. Nickum at the polls.

Recently Broadway show tickets were sold to the public in a preliminary practice has been for scalers to buy tickets from the box office in large lots and sell them at enormous profit to last minute buyers.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Aug.-(B)By Washington, Correspondent.-A.N.P. a candidate for president for 1928. That brief and abrupt but significant statement issued by Calvin House out in South Dakota, started the country last week. A flood of speculation has been loosed. Politics, music and from Washington down through the "solid south" have been galvanized into life. The fact that from the viewpoint of most Negroes, the Coolidge administration has been a dire disappointment. Not been has been made and several places which it had been hoped would be opened up have failed to materialize. In recent years, however, are prone to
D. D. WARD SUCCEEDS LUCAS AT HOWARD
Emmett Scott
NEW ASST. TREASURER
HAILS FROM FLORIDA
Spent Last Nine Years In
Public National Bank Of
New York
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Dr.
Mordecai W. Johnson, President
of Howard University, has
approved the appointment of Edmund D. Ward, of New York City as Assistant to the Treasurer and Chief Accountant.
Mr. Ward comes to Howard as successor to C. E. Lucas, with a background of training and experience which should admirably fit him for the exacting position at Howard to which he has been appointed.
Mr. Ward was trained in "Accounting" at Columbia University, New York City, and has been engaged in the practice of "Public Accounting" in the great Metropolis during the past five years. Leaving Jacksonville, Florida, his former home, in July 1918, where he was employed as cashier in a banking institution, for New York City, he secured a position with the Public National Bank of New York City, 116th street and Madison avenue, where he has remained during the past nine years. He is a faculty member as utility clerk to head bookkeeper. Mr. Ward was the only colored man holding such a position in New York City on the University's authorities at Howard University are congratulating themselves upon securing the services of a man so well trained and with such expert experience as to offer to Scott, the Secretary-Treasurer at Howard University.
For a time, Mr. Ward was a member of the bookkeeping staff of the Georgia Exchange Bank, 10th street, New York City, but resigned to resume his duties at the Public National Bank of New York. He is forty years of age.
Certain That Will Run Again believe that the president will be in the running in 1828. Benjamin J. Davis, the intrinsic and fighting National Committee of Georgia, the President's position makes him stronger with the people and assures his renomination and re-election. "Equal certainty, William C. Matthews believes that Coolidge will be a candidate and will receive the support of Negro voters, declaring that Colored people have shared in the colored people and would like to see it continued.
Perry W. Howard, Mississippi National Committeeman and Special Assistant to the United States Secretary. General expresses the interpretation that "President Coolidge has not declined the nomination, but refused to seek it. He will be renominated and I believe he will accept."

Wins Suit Against District
For Back Pay As Teacher

NOT APPOINTED AFTER
MATERNITY LEAVE
Board Put Some One Else In
First Vacancy Which Occurred
WASHINGTON, D. C.-Mrs.
Edith R. Howard, a teacher in
the Armstrong Technical High
School, was awarded a judgment
by Chief Justice Walter L. McCoy in circuit court last Friday
against the District of Columbia
for $1,516.69 for salary between
September 1, 1928 and March 2,
1927.
Chief Justice McCoy declared absurd the contention of the District commission to impose defendants and that the suit should have been filed against the board of Education, by whom the teachers are employed, appropriations for all salaries of the public schools are made to the District of Columbia and that Board of Education has funds of its own. The Board of Education has been asked to the commissioners who should be paid. Attorney Crandall Mackay appeared for Mrs. Howard. The Corporation Counsel R. L. Williams argued the judgment on the theory that the Board of Education, and not the District, has the power to appoint or discharge a lawyer. The suit was for back salary from the time she became eligible for restatement under the maternity rules of the board of education and was again placed in employment.
A vacancy occurred in the English department of the Dunbun High School in Clarissa Scott Delaney resigned to marry, but the board of education declined to appoint Mrs. Howard. A letter from the board sent a writ of mandamus to compel her appointment and while court action was pending she was reinstated to the Technical High school, March 2nd.

LIBERIA HAPPIEST LAND
FRANCE COMES NEXT
LONDON, Eng — President C. B. D. King, of Liberia on visit here is a philosopher, says the Evening News.
He reads Dickens a and Shakespeare, has barely heard of trade diseases and is not perplexed about the present, or future of the Negro race.
He sat in a large armchair, and wore a morning coat, horn-rimmed jacket, and a hat when he chatted with me this afternoon in London writes an Evening News representative). He was President of Liberia. My doctorine I have been elected President, for another four years, suggested he should take a holiday. This
The Happiest Country
I France, from which I have just arrived, strikes me as being the most enthusiastic of all the English which I have passed on this visit to Europe. My own country is exceedingly happy. There is a man who is not a criminal, the bookmen are keen to work for a shifting a day and to retire to their farms every three months of the year to gather their crop of potatoes. The one thing that has struck me about England is its extraordinary ability to have a criminal day of an English judge, when some ex-criminal brought an action, commented that even a criminal would have a chance to win. That struck me as essentially British. I am working for the Liberian nation, not the British, but I am here before Liberia. I am a thing indestructible, is this black race whereas, the national race, is white and with its advancement the black race automatically advances. I am for keeping the colored men of my country at home.
English Beauty
I have been struck since I have been in London—a matter of hours—with the stand, conservatory and garden, some amenities in France and Italy just as attractive, just as beautiful, but they are essentially modern whereas they are types who preserve that quiet stand, balanced English type or

Cooper, Addie' was to students at Morgan college and Howard university in America, twenty years ago. Cooper, Eckman, and the American army is able to the president.
Artil In England
Describing the President's arrival on Paris, the "African World" says:
"From the time the Earl of Lucan bade him welcome on the beach, the African World, last Tuesday evening, there has been a hectic wave of exciting engagements, all of the greatest interest and excitement under the most influential triumphs."
The early hours of Wednesday morning were filled by visits to England's greatest, the tomb of the unknown Warrior and on the Cenotime by. Liberia's President beautiful wreathes of his people in remembrance of the dark days of Armagedon. Visits to the Lord Mayor at the Mansion House, to the Commissary House of Lords were on Wednesday evening by an impressive banquet given by the Niger Co. Thursday provided a very full procession in an inspection of the new garrison road to the east, under the guidance of P. Ashley. A joint meeting with the Lord and Trinity House Members at the Mansion House was succeeded at an afternoon at Imber Pork. Thames Ditton, and Horse Show, were according to the President's own opinion, a delightful and most unique experience, under the guidance of Horwood and the Earl of Lonsdale, a most interesting afternoon been spent.
In the average the Liberian Minister save an official banquet at the Location. Yesterday, the President was bailed by his Maj. His President of Egypt of Arabic, followed by an official visit to Sir Austen Chamberlain at the Foresex Office. The subsequent visit to the location at which Sir Austen presided, was a most enjoyable and very informal function. Royal Garden Palace, and he was taken to the Royal Garden Party, a fun event which is in attendance of the week is going to press. Last evening the directors of the Bank of British West Africa entertained our eminent banquet, at which Lord Seiborne presided, with a subsequent visit of the whole party to the Palladium, where the Liberian National Flags and Anthem played
"Today's luncheon by Messrs. Elder Dempster, and tomorrow's African World river trip from Marlow to Marlow, with the beauteous Lord Desborough at Taplow Court, will conclude a wonderful week's programme."

High Points In Visit Of President King To London
LONDON ENGLAND (African World) - Liberica's ruler on official
visits by the British, the French and the Lord Mayor; ban-
sied by corporations, the press and officials.
Tells England we are not associated with any movement (Garvey) toward antagonizing or driving foreign races out of Africa.
Other striking paragraphs from his addresses—I discourage any native seeking education abroad before receiving a thorough grounding in Liberia. If people go to Europe or America without that grounding, they tend to become denationalized and to return with ideas that are not the same as their own.
Liberia has a great future as a rubber growing country. The Fire-scene Company has leased 1,000,000 acres and employs from 6,000 to 10,000 natives. No monopoly has been granted them. This is a small concession. There is room for English firms to secure leases on similar terms and labor is plentiful at 24 cents a day.
In 1980, the 1,000 miles of motor roads were built, not in a mile of railway. I am glad that 3,000 miles of motor roads have been built.
It should not be forgotten that we are Africans and attempting to build up a Negro nationality. Liberia represents an effort on the part of the Negro towards self-government. We are not expected to include the Blacks in this process. We want to take such portions of European civilization and culture as to allow for the over-cultivation of African culture and civilization. Africa has its own culture and civilization, and a careful study of African institutions will verify this fact.
"God in His all-wise Providence has elected to each race its own mission and duty to perform. You can liken the different races to a beauty of the whole of the world. You are not like Hues and different coxburs. As with the Bourgeois, it is the same that we are not like each proceeding along its own lines. We are seeking to maintain Africa's leading contribute towards assisting Africa in developing on African lines. Do not destroy African culture. Much is not understood about African institutions. Do not term it mere superstition and idolatry, but make a effort in studying the question, and you will find after all there is a seeking in Africa is not a good which they comprehend now. Everything in Africa is not a good."
The Hon. Fred J. Mery, Mayor of Toledo, delivered the welcome address by the Rev. S. D. Davis of St. Louis, the Secretary-Treasurer of the organization, Talks were also held by the Rev. B. F. McWilliams, pastor Third Baptist church: Mrs. Candle Stewart, St. Paul, Minn.; Mrs. Candle Boone, State Grand of Indiana.

(Continued From Page One)
After marrying Miss Mary Montgomery, the daughter of Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Booze took a prominent position in the community and Bayou, and many declare that he was largely responsible for the present economic status of the town. At one time he developed a co-operative enterprise and market movement, which warranted the support of the late Senator McKinley of Illinois, and which was of much benefit to the farmers of this
Probable Frame-pp
The informed further expressed the opinion that Mr. and Mrs. Booze are the victims of a frame-up designed to reflect discredit upon Mrs. Booze, the mattee-woman and are pointing to the persistent efforts made by inimical forces to embarrass Perry W. Howard. National Republican Committeeman. For this reason, the position has been injected into the affair.
Died At Age Of 77
Mr. Montgomery died at the age of 77. He was born on Hurricane Plantation, in 1847 and served as a captain in the Army. President of the Confederacy. He stepped into the limelight when he purchased the strip of land, which is now Mound Bayou and deserves most progressive towns in the state. Mound Bayou, which stands a monument to the memory of its founder, Negro TOWN, having all Negro officials. Negro citizens and everything Negro. One unique feature of the town is that there is no jail. The town has a flourishing business enterprises and bids to continue its growth to come. At the time of his death there was no jail due to any but natural causes. He had lived a vigorous and active life and had passed the proverbial three-score and ten years. He was due to any but natural causes. He had his son-in-law, who is now charged with being his murderer. The trial is expected to be freight with sensation and friends of the man, feel certain that the Mr. and Mrs. Booze will be vindicated.
It appears that Mr. Booze was appointed administrator of the estate of his father-in-law, Mr. Montgomery, who shared in the estate and were opposed to the administration of the estate by Mr. Booze. The matter was washed out in court and sent to the county, but not to the satisfaction of the sisters of Mrs. Booze. Reliable citizens of Bolivar county, who have follow- ing the same policy as Mr. Montgomery, see only a family quarrel in the new developments.

BY JUSTICE
I have read with profound interest your article on segregation in the Interior Department in the issue of August 5th. You were made to believe that the organization in the department was not planned with a view to segregation, but rather to facilitate the diplomatic manner in which such matters are handled and discussed with those who attempt to segregate people. I shall cite for your instances of absolute and so far successful attempts to segregate colored employees. In the Duplicating Section of the department, three colored employees, Johnson, Johnson and Brenner, were removed from room where they had contact with white clerks and placed in a room to themesize. In the Indian Office Mr. Charles Porc, Grand Commander of the Masons of Washington, and a Mr. Spry, Benjamin, though they were not taken from the room in which white clerks were located, but placed to the rear.
In the Pension Bureau, the following white clerks were taken from the files and in most cases, given a different name. Messrs. Garnett, Linn, Thatcher, Cooney, Coyne, Cummings, Galpin, Fritz, Gritz, Node, Burgs, Lynch, Lynch, Gritz, The following colored clerks were transferred to the segregation division. Johnson, Jones, Reed, Hawkins, Johnson, Jones, Reed, Hawkins, Coates, Arnold, P. Webster, Smith, Perry, Edwards, Powell, Cohn, Sedgewick, Sedgewick employees in this division, colored
In another division the only colored clerk in there, a man by the name of Ambler, was removed from the Interior Department and was located with a white clerk and placed in a room to himself.
Four Examiners
In the Colorado division the examiners who were placed in a room to themselves two have been moved into other rooms with clerks and the others given the opportunity to do it.
This was only done after the matter had received such wide publicity and appears to be an effort to quiet the clerk who was responsible for making that there are colored clerks in the Medical Division. You are again missed. There is one clerk who is responsible for doing the color examiner, a Dr. Lane. He has not been moved yet, probably because no place can be found to place him.
These are certainly moves of segregation, regardless of what the officials say to representatives of the color press.
Sunday morning to give this matter your attention and the widest-matter possible. Colored clerks in the Interior Department are being trained to you to believe such is not the case.
"The bureau of reclamation records that one messenger was placed in the hallway outside of the file room."

"The General Land office reports that no changes have been made in the placement of colored employees. Similar reports have been received from the Geological Survey and the bureau of education."

Acting Secretary Of Interior
Makes Public Report Of
Findings
NEW ALL COLORED

22 Employees Transferred
From Various Offices To
Complete It
WASHINGTON, D. C. After an exhaustive investigation of reports of segregation in the Interior Department, E. C. Finney, acting Secretary of the Interior, made public a report of his findings denying that there had been any effort to segregate colored employees. The report is as follows: There are approximately 5,500 employees in the interior department at the district. Of this number 428 are colored. Their positions range from laborer and messenger to the professions grade, specialist, spempharm and typist nurses, engineers, mechanics, cooks, map printers, pharmacists, dietitians, physicians, lawyers and other classifications. The per annum range from 690 to 9400 per annum.
Reorganization
"A reorganization of several units of the Pension Office was made effective August 14, 2004. The division was removed from the west side of the building to the proximity of the board of review. The widow division was transferred to the medical division, and about one-half of the invalid division was transferred to some of the employees. These divisions consist principally of white employees and the changes did not involve the question under consideration. They were made to expire the move of work through the bureau."
Unite Comblend
"The desirability of combining the separate filling units of the Bureau of Pensions and placing them unarmed under consideration under consideration. Concord with the changes recited above. These main filling units were combined and raised to the identity of a division of the Bureau of Pensions, colored employee as chief and a colored employee as assistant. This is the first instance in the history of the Bureau of Pensions that a man has been given the important post of Chief of Division His promotion and the promotion of his assistance. Chief of chief and assistant chief of division
New Division
"The purpose of the consolidation was not to sequestrate colored employees but to place an important unit in charge of the new division their charge. The new division consists of 43 colored employees, and to secure the necessary number of employees to fill the new division unit, involved the transfer of 22 colored employees, who were already engaged on file work in various sections. "These 23 employees were recruited from the following sources: eleven taken from the division division client were already in the Admitted Files under a white chief, who was discharged with the new Files. Division and three colored file clerks in the board of review were also transferred to the white employees, formerly in the various units, which now comprise the files division were transferred to the new division still maintained by the medical division and board of review.
"The Pension Office has 22 colored employees, and other than the instance cited above, there has been practically no change in their place, and their former locations. A colored physician who occupies the position of medical examiner, is still in a position of review. A colored clerk in the special examinations division has also been changed. A messenger on the board of review continues in his position. A colored clerk was not changed. A colored clerk in the deputy commissioner's room was not moved. A colored messenger in the disbursement division was not moved. A colored messenger opposite a white chief of section.
No Complaint
"There has been no complaint in the Pension Office with respect to the moves except in the case of four examiners, who in the general re-education district were placed on similar work in a room by Licenses. This involved the transfer of only one colored employee, the other three already living on the same work. This was because the condition and the condition was immediately corrected when objection was raised. "Many of the colored employees in the Pension Office fee compliment the division, which has been made the entire responsibility of colored employees. Other Burues. "A canvas of the other bureaus of the Department of the Interior declares the following. "The office of the Secretary reports that a color! messenger some time ago was moved across the hall duplication action for convenience. One colored minigraph operator whose services were unsatisfactory, was changed to messenger, and another colored minigraph operator was changed to make more space in the multigraph room.
"The Indian office reports that a
some time ago the chief clerk desti-
red to place several women together
in the room to work on the colored
employee from one part of
the room to a location in the same
room with two other colored em-
ployees. In the same room with white
employees.

MEMPHIS, Tenn.—The mystery of the missing bust of Bishop Henry M. Turner has been solved.
A great rue and cry went up all over the country two weeks ago when members of the Mite Missionary Society in annual session here unveiled what was to have been the bust of the late Bishop Turner, who was called the church's greatest mis-

She sent one of cards to the express office and the messenger brought the books, and she placed on the platter. This package was thought by the delegates to be the bus. The package later disappeared.

"It is true that there was some opposition to paying $800 for bust, which it had for the rulers, but he had been stolen. It has also been suspected that there were some political matters which struck the agitation committee. Someone might have been forced to create sentiment in favor of the President's re-election."

Dr. Douglass is internationally known as the most eminent and noted evangelist of the race in America. He came into prominence in Baltimore in 1915 when he conducted a revival that rivalled Billy Sunday, who had not recognized the colored ministry in making up his program for a city wide revival. The lamented Bishop Coplin brought the young evangelist to Bethel A. M. E. Church and from that time he has remained Baltimore's favorite evangelist of the race, who has ever conducted a revival over the radio. The promoter introducing him over the radio said the world will now listen to a living encyclopedia of the Bible, the greatest evangelist born since the days of the apostles.
Dr. McDuffe will make his ninth trio into Baltimore, strange to say, and the offender he comes the greater the crowd. He is a man with a message. The Rev. James G. Martin has arranged for this campaign which will be conducted at Grace A. M. E. Church, Catonsville. A space that will accommodate a thousand people has been secured under a big tent. You must come early. Don't forget the opening date on the church lawn, Monday night, August 22. The opening Sunday services will start at 10:30 a. m.

B. JOHN H. CLAY
The tribe of Judah was lost to acknowledge Saul as king because it wanted a king out of its own tribe; while fleeing from Saul 400 of David's friends and 200 of his army, he 200 more volunteered. These 600 men were David's army and after the death of Saul they made David king over Judah. David and Ishbosheth lasting five or six years. The house of Saul wanted Ishbosheth king over all Israel, and the house of Jesse wanted David to be king over Judah, the king of Israel. The leader of David's army, Abner was the leader of Ishbosheth's army. Joab slew Abner's men so fast that Abner gave up his army. Abner was not that he was wrong, for all ancient nations believed the gods were against them if defeated in battle. Churches today believe that they are doing right if they are progressive. Not so always.
The men of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, "We are afraid of the ark." David said thou shalt be a captain over Israel." David made a league with the tribes and was anointed king over the 12 tribes. Nothing pleases the Almighty more than for two angry fighting parties to reflect the suffering of the people to be friends. When this is done, God sends the sunshine of his love and showers of blessings upon both. The people everybody is happy — but one thing is wanting. It is God's presence—The Ark. The Ark is away from the place of worship for twenty years. David goes down and makes a start with it upon a cart, comes over the rough road and is killed. David becomes afraid and leaves the ark at the house of Abedoned. David goes any house where the spirit of God is. David ordered the priests to consecrate themselves and the people to sanctify themselves and they go down and bring up the ark.

ENTERTAINING PASTOR
CECILTON, Md.—Advocating supervised dancing, card playing and movies pavilby for the A.C.F. AMERICAN threw a bombshell in the session of the Centerville District Conference of the A. M. E. church meeting here last week.
Speaking on the subject of "Love As a Christian," the arts Chew relent not to reference the that "shall not" doctrine was making reliance unattractive to modern youth, and declared that the teaching of the arms of young men around the waists of young women while dancing would be too suggestive, were thinking, and not out of the minds of rightly disciplined young men and women. In the course of her discussion and answer to questions in native African men who are constantly in the presence of their women with even less clothes than the super-tactile African men, they were with their wives longer than our men do.
Provokes Discussion
A ferry discussion was provoked by the speaker, several of the men in the church, utterances showed that she did not belong in the A. M. E. church. "All of the commandments" desultated the church with "thou shalt not" and the church can't afford to let down the bars. Although declaring that he could not submit to the church or movies, the Rev. W. H. Manoko declared that whereas the church banned modern amusements they enjoyed, the young might enjoy.
Excellent Condition
Reports from the field showed all churches in excellent condition. The session began Wednesday with Presidial Elder William the Younger, President Elder P. J. Jordan, Organization resulted in the election of the Revs. R. S. Stambury, chief secretary, John Jordan, assistant secretary, and Dr. Measurer and W. H. Baker, reporter. Addresses and sermons were delivered by the Revs. W. H. Manokoo Jordan, John Jordan, Baker, Stambury, John Hammond and H. W. Lewis. The John choir composing units from Denton Grassville and Cecilton, rendered excellent work visiting churchmen were the Revs. C. E. Stewart. C. H. Stephan, J. J. Baker, W. H.

WEEKLY SERMON
WEEKLY SERMON
"The Law Of God"
By H. A. Pritchard of New York
If there had been a law given
which could have given life, verity
righteousness should have been by the
same means. Life is the daily thing man never
heeds; and the reason why he does not heed it is because he is so close
to it that he misses its vast and
significant potentialities. Just as a
master sees the eyes of the raptet who knows
him too well, so life loses its mystery
and meaning to the drudge
who is occupied in the business of living. And yet we could but look
at it from a different sub-
and delicate and altogether
entralling a drama it is.
If we peer so intimately in the face of life that we cannot see its beauty, we cannot be blamed and whom we to blame? Surely, it cannot be counted against Him whose gift it is. Rather we were given the power to infiltrate him that we might trace its glory to the end of the evening sky, and then go on to the spiritual infiltration of his life. For he be for some, you say. But not for many. Life is the daily thing most men never hear. It is freedom from the daily life. It is something different from any other life. To man alone has been given the power really to be free, the power really to rise above law—not all law, because his body is subject still to gravitation and decay and the condition of his body is free because his spirit can be cabined by nothing. Human life is the restless striving of the good only to see the better; and the better only to attempt it; for the who ceases to become better ceases to build us up the being that we are.
We must have law, but it must be law, universal and infinite. That is the law of God. God's law is law, universal and infinite. It comes from within, not from without. It is a part of man, not a part of that which surrounds us. We have whose heart and soul there is honor for the law of God to maintain obed-

fence to fashion and convention; for the law of God assumes all that is good in the customs of men, infinitely extends its application. Governments proceed by diplomacies that are often dishonest, and go so far as to spur specious parriotism. Jesus should provide things honorable in the sight of all men and guard against those who come as wolves in the guise of sheep. Even churches at all ages should be charged with chance uninitiated, and hide the presence of God by ceremonial decree and petty discipline. Jesus asks merely to love Him. The reason is that the sufficient for the sorrowful, sinful soul. Man is not made for the Sabbath, but Sabbath for man. It was always so with Jesus. He was always able to pass beyond. He was able to pass beyond. His friends saw in Him the love that could pass beyond the little local mood, and hold in its embrace the mood, and all of mankind. His disciples saw in Him the risen power of God which could pass beyond the local pace and time to be effectual in dimensions they could not understand.
And so, amid the scruples of daily life, He showed them how to conventions that human deceit set, into the fuller life of love and service. And to that end He sat and reasoned with the woman of Samaria, that humankind deceit set, into the fuller life of love and service. And to that end He sat and reasoned with the woman of Samaria, that humankind deceit set, into the fuller life of love and service. He did His healing upon the Sabbath day; and preached of God for the individual soul, unhampered by church or creed that belief in Him was believed in God. He was the door to eternal life, was the door to eternal life. If, as some said, He was a law unto Himself, He was the Sabbath day. For you and me to follow Him is a difficult matter—for we are not equally the sons of God. And He gave us guidance, we need not despair. For He says, "Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be troubled, believe in God, believe also in Me."

Children Cry For
Fletcher's
CASTORIA
There are many ways a baby has of expressing any pain or irregularity or digression from its normal condition of health and happiness. A short sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole body, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria. Castoria has been used for baby's saliments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby's medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved.
And remember this: Castoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cure-all for every member of the family. What might help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe.
To avoid imitations, always look for the signature of the Proven directions on each package. Physicians everywhere recommend it.

PHILADELPHIA, PA—Charles Fred, former boxing commissioner, is not only not opposing the re-election of Magistrate Edward W. Henry, but is not seeking his job, he emphatically told friends here this week. Mr. White's statements were in reply to a news story published in a local paper in which he was accused of opposing the re-election of Henry because he was not a regular public figure. For the past three months, according to friends of the former boxing commissioner, Magistrate Henry and his close friends have secretly fought for the national colored magistrate. What he is fighting for is a magistrate in North Philadelphia and not Henry's job. He has never advised anyone he says, not to vote for Henry, whom he gave the appointment two years ago.
"Why," Mr. White is quoted as saying, "I was offered $200,000 by one man or $100 per month out of his salary and $5,000 by another. If I were offered $200,000, I would them into the job, but I told them both I had already spoken for Henry and would not change. I told them. Having been the first to announce my candidacy, I expect to say in the race, declared Mr. White. I was probably the first colored man in Philadelphia to run for that office. I was also the firstaries for the place fourteen years ago, in 1913, from the 36th ward. My first petitions were filled more than a week ago for this year's race, and I will continue my well-known policy of justice and a square deal, for all."

UNITED STATES POLICE
Land sharps are creating a veritable gold mine by one of the smoothest of legalized confidence games on record. A dapper, olly tongued individual breezes into your home in the kind of dings of great joy. After congratulating you on your luck he informs you that in the nation-wide contest conducted by the "Sickeenie" or some such really company you won a "and it doesn't cost you one penny. All you have to do is pay $49 for the deed and the title search and the lot is yours, right in the heart of the sea." Of course you pay the $49. The reason they get away with is that they really do give you a lot. They buy a few acres of swamp land in the 18 lots; actual value at $2 each. They then look you up in the directory to determine whether you are likely to have $49 on hand in cash. You are then visited and see that you are the proud owner of a lot which you absolutely free. The fact is you have paid $49 for worthless land and the company who gave you something for nothing made exactly $46
HOT GOODS MERCHANTS
It puzzled me at first how many of the items I bought were whose income I knew to be moderate could afford to dres they do. When a girl appears on the street in a mink coat or Paris gown in many cases it is not unusual to see people in Paris gown not cheap imitations. These are not purchased at the baker's or the retail stores but from what is known as "Hot Goods Merchants." The Harlemite notifies him that he would be in for a certain article. The merchant, "fence" brings you the suit, dress or coat when he gets hold of it. If you are a good customer, and buys a piece of furniture, you can pick up wonderful bargains in watches, diamonds and jewelry. Such customers save the rogue from bothering with pawn shops, and you can afford a peruvian jacket are always annoying. Whenever a wealthy downtown apartment is looted some perfectly well-dressed person is detected Harlem's appears in new rie.
It's never good policy or good manners to ask a New Yorker where he buys clothes. Some toils have their regular 'hot goods' merchant just may have their regular boot-leger.
QUEER THINGS IN BROOKLYN
.Brooklyn looks like a town that grew up all by itself, without any ties to the city. So numbered that you can be walking in the 1800 block on one side of the street and the 1800 block on the other. Then, too, the 900 block might be another block of blocks.
THE SOUP SCHOOL
A factory has replaced the old soup school on Dean street. There needly colored children attended classes. It was started by a rich old man who get aside a sunny day to teach the pupils every lunch hour. At Christmas time each child receives a pair of shoes. If, however, the teachers learnd that the parents were not in poor circumstances the shoes were regularly given to the pupil was immediately graduated.
On Fulton street, near Buffalo avenue, there is a church called the Al Church. Both white and colored attend in perfect equality. They have no pastor, but everybody does anything he is big enough to do. They will help him pull his hair and wave their arms particularly during prayer. Non-believers are invited to come in and meet him. On Lefferts place there is another church recently started by a young pastor. It bears the name of Christus. On Lefferts place he offers to its members and buries its larger. Larger churches are feeling the inroads being made by the attractiveness of this practice religion. A letter appearing in the Brooklyn Times in the Love Lorn column was as follows: "I am a young white woman. I am a Negro doctor. My mother says the might marry him. He is well-to-do. I have many white sultons who also wish me to marry them. What do I will I regret marrying a Negro?"
The answer came the following day. "If you are marrying him merely for his money you are making a great mistake. As to the other man, you are asking the readers answer your question." For more than a month there was nothing in the love lorn column but letters debating this question. Some ran from the finest and broadest man to social equality to the vilest traits conducted by the cracker mind.
THE FAUD
When the controversy died down it was learned that a colored man who was writing nothing else had written the original letter in his idle moments just for the fun.

POLICE RAIDED HER HOME SUNDAY NIGHT
DUNN, N. C., Aug.—(A.N.P.)—Mrs. Britain West and her lover, Ira Cox, were sentenced to serve two years in confinement on a charge of immoral relations here Thursday.
This was the official charge. Actually the police resented the frequent visits of Cox to the West home and the social equality involved. There was no charge of disorder and attorneys point out that the relief was not granted. Cox and West were arrested Sunday night when officers raided the home of the woman and found the couple in a bed room, disrobed. The police stand she charged her former lover with having broken into her room and attacking her. She explained that she had made no outcry because Cox threatened to kill her if she had she did not submit to his wishes.
The bed-room scene which confronted the officers and the reports which led to the raid, caused them to be arrested for once the old girl did not go.
Mrs. West's husband is an invalid and was asleep in the adjoining room, during the "attack." He would make no statement whatever in court, indicating his divorce immediately. Cox is an athletically built and attractive man and his white sweetheart is a comedy woman about thirty years old.

BEST FAMILIES SUFFER UNDER VA. RACE LAW
Families Thot White For
Decades Found To Have
Colored Blood
CHILDREN BARR'D FROM
RICHMOND SCHOOLS
Ancestors Were Indians
Who Mixed With Whites
And Slaves
NEW YORK.—Virginia's "racial integrity" law, enacted in 1924, is making trouble for some of the "best families" of the state according to a special despatch to the New York World.
Richmond is now forced to establish a special school for fifty or more small children who have been barred from white schools on the ground that they have American Indian ancestry and their parents refuse to send them to Negro schools. A Peeper, State Registrar of Vital Statistics, who was dismissed from a political he held under the U. S. Department of Labor after completing his degree in Negro propaganda by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is backing the opinion of the state authorities that Virginia's Virginia is equivalent to admission of Negro ancestry. The World's despatch continues:
"Families with a noticeable strain of Negro blood first were barred from the white schools. In many cases, they had almost completed their education in the white public schools—sons and daughters of parents who always had considered themselves parents." "Parents of such children had no choice but to send them to Negro schools. Only a few from their families had their boys and girls at home, trying vainly to explain why. Embarrassment involved a score of families and gave Richmond a bitter lesson in inscigena-
Beslieve School
"The parents besieged the school authorities in their misery and won their complete sympathy, and they did nothing for them. And when a desperate mother charged favoritism and informed upon her brothers and sisters and cousins that she had taken their children from the white schools. Some of the children, shown by records to have Negro blood were so white that no one might fight them other than pure Caucasian. "Several of the families affected had been proud of their Indian blood, and they disclosed beyond reasonable doubt that practically no Virginia Indian blood subsequent to 1800 remained free from a pronounced Negro strife. "Indians And Slaves
"Indian reservations for more than 100 years furnished refuge for runaway slaves and hospitality to freed negroes, in the state of Virginia became inextricably mixed. And inevitably the white mixed with the red and black to produce children with clear features: noses and straight Indian hair. "Many of these children became handsome men and beautiful women, and came to the city years ago. Their children were more white than they. And the children of the third and fourth generation took their places in the city, and have become valuable citizens with considerable property. "Schools In North "Some children will send their children to private schools in the North, determined that they shall keep their status as Caucasians. The Richmond State School in North, the State Board of Education, is to establish a special school for the others in September. There are enough of them to establish the bordering colony comprised of people neither white, red nor black."

"Many of us." declared the pastor, "start out wonderful in the race of life but fall by the wayside.

Peter Jackson Greatest "Uncle Tom" Actor Not Jas. B. Lowe
LOS ANGELES, Cal.—(PNGB) Peter Jackson one of the best heavyweight boxers the ring ever produced was the first and greatest boxer of his generation. B. Love, film actor, who played the part recently of "Uncle Tom" in Mrs. Howe's immortal play, says Edward W. Smith in an article written for the International New Yorker. Jackson's manager at the time was the one time famous Parson Charles E. Davies, who handled the show and played the part of the auctioneer. He was one of the best light heavyweight fighters of any time, stepping in as Simon Legree. Joe Ohnyakki today is referee in Chicago. He will verify and perhaps help a young old chap now dead and gone. Peter Jackson was one of the most intelligent and likeable men I've ever known. Joe travelled with him for a number of months under the management and will understand what I am saving.
If ever a person deserved to be champion, he knew who knew tell you, any man who knew the circumstances of the times. HE WAS CHAMPION befriended by a game of fighting L. Sullivan forfeited the title to him. And if John didn't by his failure to just with Peter, when there is no justice in the world.
A. GENTLEMAN
Peter Jackson was a gentleman, made gentlemanly challenge to Sullivan at a time when it was his right to be a judge. He was insulted in a most unfortunate manner.

For the benefice of asthma sufferers, Mr. Charles Dean, 910; Virginia avenue, Indianapolis, Ind., tells how he got entirely rid of this stubborn disease, Mr. Dean says:
"I began having asthma in 1912. Kept it going for 30 years. I worked, I would walke and choke and if I walked a square, I had to lean on it. I was a patient of NACOR, 1823. I began taking NACOR. Relief came very promptly, and I continued to feel perfectly well again, and can say that NACOR is the only medicine that brought me relief other sufferers from asthma.

Supporting Miss Bennett in the story mother love is Mary Carr, beloved screen mother of "Over the Hill". With her fine sympathy and understanding she and understanding wife sold fashioned woman life interest is her family.
The management has secured "The Show", another Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, for beginners and older. John Gilbert, Renée Adoree and Lionel Barrymore. They play the central characters in a child in a mysterious sideshow on the outskirts of "the invisible city" — a sideshow of illusions, magician's tricks and strange illusions used in the show in which Gilbert has his head cut off in a "Salome" travesty as the central feature. Gilbert plays a swashbuckling sidewalk dancer in "The Salome Adoree, a Salome dancer in the production, with Lionel Barrymore as the Greek a sinister ranger in "The Old blind man who eventually brings about an astounding climax.

Pittsburgh Fighter Goes West
Pittsburgh Fighter Goes West
Jules Norman, the Pittsburgh heavyweight, who has been in the city for several months, left this week to spend a fortnight, where he will spend a fortnight. During Norman's short stay here he won the hearts of the local fighters, including those of Washington, and K. O. Martin, of North Carolina. The licking handed Martin will never be forgotten by the fans who saw the fight. For two years he was the third staller after hammering his opponent groggy Norman knocked Martin thru the ropes onto the floor. The battle was the bloodiest last ever witnessed in the New Albany. The Pittsburgh mauler has 10 knockouts to his credit out of 23 bouts and recently declined an offer to play in the world championship, as one of his sparring partners.

Thoughts Of The Founder
Bishop J. Albert Johnson would have in all probability still be filling a pulpit instead of the shoof chair had it not been possible for the shoof chair to be given him for his election he was the only man who could take success fully take care of the A. M. E. South African situation in other cities. That was the only reason why he was allowed a bishop at that time. He did not the fact that he towered above and head above every other candidate, but it was simply because the African situation demanded a certain character and he was the only one who could fill the bill.
"Watermillion"
The daily press rarely prints a photograph of watermelons without a colored person is in the picture, and so it has its little joke. But—
The AFRO is able to print this week the following dispatch from its Pacific Coast new Bureau:—
LOS ANGELES, Cal.—As the AFRO of the fulmination that followed the collection, retention and tying up of the Anglo Temple him in the gilded mission for African mission Mrs. Kennedy, all offered legal and otherwise to reach a peace agreement between Mother and daughter. More recording by Mrs. Kennedy who stated that "watermelon and lemonade has broken up every conference we have had in an effort to make matters better" and that as the meetings with their attorneys convened Mrs. McPearson insisted on drinking lemonade and eating watermelon.
Answering her mother's charges Mrs. McPherson and I lemonade. I can only say that I like to eat watermelon and enjoy drink lemonade and I will promise not to eat or drink while talking business."
Now what we want to know is this—Mrs. Almee Semple McPherson the millionaire even thinks like a wormerelike she can't leave it to attend to business. Can it be that the Almee is a white person or has she colored blood?
Dr. Moton's Proposal
If Dr. R. R. Molon's annual address before the National Business Laureus is a criterion, the Tuskegee head has not only recovered from his recent illness but has been benefited and improved by his trip around the continent for the South are not skims included to speak with the directors Dr. Molon employed in this address. With grateful appreciation for the sympathetic understanding of white friends, Dr. Molon nevertheless notes the rising side of opposition--darker races in Nordic countries that the government national state and city do, and offers a program nation wide cooperation of organizations to push an economic and political program. Those who would be critical may ask Dr. Molon where he was when Dr. Kelly Miller was endeavoring to put over a similar cooperative organization plan under the title of
The main thing, however, is that Dr. Moeton has made one of the soundest and most courageous utterances of his life time. Not ever when members of Ku Kluus threatened to burn to the heart and unleash arreed upon a white person for Tuskegee Hospital, did he display more personal courage and sincerity. It's been traditional for the head of Tuskegee Institute to speak for the south and to say "that everything is all right." Acquire property and education and all else will follow. Dr. Moeton has broken with tradition, and unless we misinterpret his meaning, this address marks a turning point in racial progress.
Va. Pollyticks
From Richmond (Va.) Pilot
"In the Grace Arents Library, recently added to Richmond's library, a public spilted citizen, there is employed a fifteen-dollar-a-week Negro janitor. The job is coveted by a white man, and in favor of pitching the Negro out and putting the white man in and feeling that way about it, have a job of $2,500 that is needed to finance operation of the library until the first of next year, in order to force library authorities to bend to their." The library authorities decline to dismiss the Negro who has grown away in the service and may not fully perform and the library faces a forced closing until the endowment funds, not available until January 1, will make operation free from councillor discipline.
"These are the little tyrannies and petty skulduggers that make bitter relations between the men of the more enlightened Southern elements for an better and fairer racial adjustment and dozen interracial associations labored in a year, four ward Tories tear down in a single poisonous hour. Isn't there some to amputate men like these from affairs and halt their destruction?"

Go It Garvey
Go It Garvey
Is there anything to Garveyism, is the question correspondents frequently write us.
The race riot in Chattanooga. It last wilt give us an opportunity to say there's a whole lot and to add figure it out for yourself.
Mr. Marcus Garvey, founder of the organization, made some mistakes in financing his organization. As a result he has spent the last two years in the penitentiary. Direction of the whole organization in the sense was taken by the guards. They squabbled among themselves and split into a dozen factions.
Mrs. Garvey, wife of the imprisoned leader took up the burden, but she has only proved a voice crying against the guards.
The international organization seems to pieces, but not the Garvey program which in hundreds of communities is gospel and palter.
The Chattanooga riot represents the typical southern white rejection to colored organizations provided with military uniforms and weapons.
In Tennessee a Negro cannot join the state militia, but he can join the African guards of Garvey and the women are recruited as Black Cross Nurses.
Constitutional rights, and racial equality advocated by every intelligent constituent the Garvey and which soup box orators spout in fary language.
Garveyvites "protest" lynching and segregation, "declare" alien judges and juries from which blacks are excluded as unfair, "believe" in the superiority of the black race in all things racial, "demand" the capitalization of the word Negro and the recognition of their leader Marcus Garvey.
They practically "dead" these two years speaks and lives in the organization he founded. Is he can do this much from Atlanta Penitentiary, watch his smoke when he is freed.
Heard And Seen In Baltimore
A couple were united in marriage on the stage of the Royal Theatre, and the trouble with getting married at a theatre is there are too many witnesses and you can't out of it.
Of course all men don't deny they are married; but if all the wives went to the country at the same time you would think that nothing in the world but bachelors.
You can tell when a woman is married by the ring on her finger and you can tell when a man is married by the rings under his eyes.
A woman can put on a short skirt, powder her nose and you can't tell whether she's a flapper or mother of ten. A man can manphew his wife, but he can't hide the scars of the rolling pin.
Some wives think kitchen utensils are implements of warfare. Some husbands won't enter their home without making sure their insurance is paid up.
It's good to get married in a theatre if you get a percentage on the gate receipts, but you can't make a fool of himself if he's getting paid for it.
There is some consolation in the fact that some guys married worse women and never got a nickel out of it. Of course, marriage isn't like the bride and groom and demanded their money back.
It would mean a lot more money if the ceremony was stretched out into several episodes allowing men to each perform. The audience would be anxious to see if the man escaped before the final installation.
If these stage weddings grow in popularity it won't be long before the wedding march will be replaced by a Charleston Contest.
The minister will have to work under cork and perform the ceremony without getting enough laughs out of the audience he might lose his job.
The bride's maids will wear short skirts, no stockings and dance on their toes.
If the marriage goes over the best man will have to give an encre. If the wedding is punk and they throw eggs from the gallery, the happy couple will worry about next morning.
When they have a wedding in a theatre they ought to let the boys pass around slices of cake instead of peanuts and pop corn.
When you chauch admirations to your wedding nephew who has a dime can be a friend of the family.
If you don't invite them to the reception you have a perfect right to feel slighted. You might have to go so far as to let everybody kiss the bride.
No man wants every Tom, Dick and Harry kissin' his his. But if you want to demand the they liable to demand their money back.

DAYBYDAY
Now and then humanity is rocked by a seismic disturbance. A little fissure through which water now trickle to wipe up heat deep beneath the earth may cause a terrible earthquake. The unusual case of Sacco and vanzetti, radicals, executed this man, illustrates how the same thing may happen with human institutions. Ordinarily, these men, even the convicted on circumstantial evidence, die with an inch notice in most newspapers outside their immediate vicinity.
BUY THE EXECUTION OF SACCO AND VANZETTI HAS SHAKEN THE FOUNDATIONS OF HUMAN SOCIETY THROUGOUT THE ENTIRE WORLD. It must not be forgotten, however, that this might tempest be sown in reactionary and slave driving capitalism in Massachusetts decided to lift up a nationwide persecution with the punishment of these men.
Enemies Of
The Government
Seven years ago because there were men who dared to express their belief that war was what they were, they were here in America there were gluttonous captains of industry forging their wealth not only out of the carcases of young men torn to shreds on the battle front, but to hide their wealth in blind and grind out the implements, food and supplies to carry on, they were branded as "enemies of the Government." Vanuzett known radicals, therefore, were arrested as murderers, it was the reactionary monguls with their minions in the press, pulpit, judicial legislative office, while the word the line down the "get the reds."
The Oppressed Strike Back
Well, in getting the reds, these moguls sow the wind; and now they are the reds. The "reds" struck back. Even here in conservative America the tyrannion has swept across the country leasing its war bombines, innocent deaths, and cost millions in dollars. Throughout the civilized world, there has been a tremor of hursting violence, and "of setting new foundations" justice and human relations as a "suit of this amazing case." The violence has to one extreme, and now with merciless brutality liberalism is swinging as far back in the other. If Sacco and Vanzetti are guilty they have met their just punishment according to the capitalism should not have tried to electrocute the spirit of the tolling masses along with them. That was a greater victory. Sacco and Vanzetti are said to have committed.
Communism
This world is moving distinctly towards communism. This should frighten no one. When the government takes at least the people, takes over the control of railway and street car traffic rates; when it decides to charge more money may charge on his money; when it takes back a part of individual incomes to distribute among the people, it is headed toward Marxist socialism. When an individual working in a factory believes the government is not doing its job even at the danger of cutting down the big salaries of the owners and cutting out the big shares in the wealth and toll, he also is headed towards Communism. That is what Sacco and Vanzetti believed in, not so much in believing this, but it was claimed that Sacco and Vanzetti believed in BRINCHING BY FOICE AND LAWLESS MEASURES.
Example Of Industry
Well, our captains of industry in many instances have set the example by prostituting government officials and stiffing free speech with their millions THAT IS LAWLESSNESS. And in spite of laxness extremes on the part of government, the body of humanity is struggling on towards communism.
The Negro And Radicalism
In America the Negro has been so far behind in acquiring even government and society that he has had little time to give to radically different men bettered if he got the DIVISION OF THE PRODUCT OF LABOR THAT THE RADIO MAN IS NOW CHAFING, UNDER.
Economic Radicalism
But deep down under the surface is developing a tendency to economic radicalism. Russia has taken steps in the march towards the dictatorship of the proletariat is having a tremendous influence on the young men and women who WILL LEAD THE NEXT GENERATION. But his greatest incentive comes from what the radicals offer as compared with what our benevolent capitalists have offered. The program capitalists, chief members of philanthropy, has been to keep the masses poor by poor wages and dole out charity to take care of the consequences of their poverty. They openly condone race prejudice and segre-
But radical Russia is carrying on a world fight which would level the opportunities of all races, banish war from the earth and reclaim the reigns of government in the hands of the men and women who work.
Bolshevism
Call it Bolshevism or Communism or whatever you like, it certainly sounds good to get in the vanguard of this movement towards a more just system of human relations. The greatest radical that ever lived was Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He tore the very heart out of the economic, religious and political system, and was the engenitor of what Sacco and Vanetti, in their erring zeal, and the millions of people whose determination have been excruciating, have been fighting for.

To the Editor.
I am very glad to note that the AFRO stands ready at all times to defend its people's rights. As an assistant of justice is fundamental to all men. But there are so many evils and crookedness among those that hold the whip in heating you to death in prison. On this date and day two headquarters plain clothes policemen visited me and accused me of robbing a store on Pennsylvania avenue and Franklin street club near Faca street. Did you ever hear of a man glad he is in jail? Of course I was arrested in prison, and I was that I am serving time for now. I was in jail waiting to be tried the 14th of March when the Franklin Street Club was held up. I read the news that I fell, no doubt I would have four stickups charged against me instead of two After a while I guess they will accuse me of murder. That it is impossible to accuse a man of those crimes when he was arrested four days before and placed in jail before the hold ups were commit-
I am a hard working man. If I were a theft I had many ways of defending me, of my employers. It seems there are so many Nesro hating policemen on the force. They will pick up at my man, just like the crime that some one else had done. Picking up innocent people and placing them in prison is only making criminals a roadside. Society must reform the innocent man they have branded and made a criminal. I never guilty. I serve my duty. I would not look for sympathy. Born and reared in Baltimore City, in a good family. I spent four years and earned a home from Bristol, England. Just in time to serve with the 351st Heavy field artillery eight months.

Some Truth in Mencken's Views
Thinks This Writer Who Urges
MacDuff "To Lay On."
To the Editor:
Mr. Mencken's article recently
broadcast through the press of the
nation has caused such a silt
among the "brethren" concerning
whom he writes.
There is abundant
food for thought as well as more
than a measure of truth in what he
says. Of course, the merest school
boy could devise an answer to
many of the writer's assertions. For instance, no allowance seems to be made for the
prodigious amount of energy neces-
arily expended by members of the
prejudice and the discriminatory practices
high universally imposed. Any fair
and just appraisal of the achievement
might not fail to take this into
account.
Then, any analysis purporting to be immoral, of America's rather meager contribution in the description of describe, recognize, for instance, Paul Laurence Dunbar's place among the writers of English verse, or Booker T. Washington's infliction of the thought, and methods in that age-old and well-worked field, or fails to give place to one Frederick Douglass, a fellow citizen whose qualities of mind and heart would have carried him far in the councils of the Nation, but for the "accident" of birth, to say nothing added contributions to American achievement—is indeed to expose the writer to attack from all sides. The Negro, however, has no laurel to bear on his history, unfortunately cannot be said of races, and in the era which is now upon us, in this day, three generations removed from emancipation to know of the greater opportunity to know, to have, and to do, excuse will no longer be accepted in the place of achievement, and the judgment of our contemporaries on deeds and not through sentiment.
More power, then to the pens of the Lewisse, Van Vechtens and the Hencken, to paint us as they see us. Halt the coming of the day when every accepted standard used to measure human achievement will be applied to us. With the unproductive and noncreative work of resistance and struggle against such odds and challenges, we will be able to active channels, and the race in America without special favor or fawning alone on its merits, then and then on its faults and so alike in the midst of American civilization and achievement, watch with conscience clear and void of offense as we sink or swim, and with conscience clear and void of race when but when only, that time shall come let it be. Lay on McDuff. He must be film who first crises hold, oppose.
"Nothing Wrong At A. & T. College." Says President of the Alumni Association.
To the Editor:
The July 23 issue of your paper contained an article headed "Difficulties At The A. & T. College, and brought forth by the Alumni Association. As President of the Alumni Association I wish to state that the article prepares you without knowledge. I have made a searching investigation and I fail to find any member of the Association who knows anything convinced that no member of the A. & T. College Alumni Association sent such erroneous statements to the press to feel how honest the article could be. I want to sit up trouble and hide behind the Alumni Association is responsible for this article. I want to further investigate the A. & T. College. The statements contained in the articles are wholly at variance with the truth.

We read a lot of scandal about the clergy. Naturally if they transgress it is news because they are arrests. I did not meet these men until I first met the people they teach. One of them was a pastor named him the hills of W. Va. They call it the Valley of the Shenandoah. It would be better, the hills of Shenandoah. Our pastor is not thickly settled enough to keep a pastor so consequently Rev. Mr. Hardesty has three towns. Rev. Mr. Key, three towns. Rev. Mr. Key, three towns. They travel through some of the toughest roads, rain or shine, visiting their flock. The white people are on them. The black people and congenial. Numbers of the small towns have ball teams with race men on them. The numbers of the pastor. In fact, I was trying to peddle an AFRO and thought I was smart, but before I knew it, Mrs. Hardesty gave me for fifteen cents for the church. Therefore the only people we can point to if they are good are the pastors. All three have little cars, and go from one town to the other.
Rev. Moore modestly admitted he had only converted three white people to Christianity here, a race man, Ed Fields, who taught two bands and an orchestra the colored free. A genius, but not much on business in Paw Paw. He finally got him in church, made him a minister, changed them. He had a home well thought of and last week inherited only about $20,000. He deserved it. He was a white man, dom use Ed's race band. The white people keep them too busy.
Lots of these towns use the same grave yard. — Globe Trotter.

And So The Sabbath Debate Goes Merrily On.
To the Editor:
In the public know through your news paper that the decision of the court was not anything to the credit of the Rev. Mr. Barfield to prove that he is not responsible for what he says.
He is the judge and the judges discharged their duties. If he did not pay his bounty bill to me, he did have to pay the real money to somebody, and he did not bluff them. I am not down yet, and I will not be down. I am just as bold now as ever for him or any of his

Of all the philanthropists and workers, in the destruction of slavery, there is no name among them who has done more for the cause of England. A quotation from one of Mr. Clarkson's letters, to Sir Charles Metcalf, Governor of Canada, in 1843, will give us a very interesting glimpse of the free Nebraska, a state that had hundred years ago. Negro slaves were set free in those islands in 1833. Mr. Clarkson says: "You will know from your experience in the innocent folly in the Negro character which delights in a love of finery and good clothes, and that in this way they are extravagant. And what other advantage would you not have in the phrase of an industrious population."

D. Mossman, Passionate and promised not to repel his rudeness to me either over the phone or personally at the office Without this Sergeant would have been in ween. He was angry
The story in a nutshell is this: I phoned the Railroad information bureau to ascertain schedule for the train to New York. J. The reply was given so rapidly that I scarcely could understand what was said. Asking that the statement be repeated, I rattled the answer as fast as he did before and abruptly rang up. I then telephoned to find out his name but he refused to answer. I was going to report him. Through the Railroad telephone operator and the Passenger Agent I learned that his name was the case to the Company. My complaint was followed by the enclosed letter and Sergean's personal apology.

Kelly Miller Says
No gentleman will insult any human being unless he feels that it is necessary to maintain his own self respect and integrity. A wanton insult or affront to one's fellowman without any just provocation is as mean and unmanly as human nature is capable of.
Henry Ford has learned and taught the world a salutary lesson. We thank thee, Jew, for teaching him that lesson.
Henry Ford, the wizard of business genius, was beguiled into insulting the Jewish race through serious accusations against him. Independent which owns and controls. The series of accusations published under the caption of "The International Journal constituted the greatest Journalist's time."
Perhaps no Journalistic venture of our day evoked such wide spread communication, How Mr. Ford, a pure business man could have allowed himself to launch such an assailant in the business world is hard to understand. When one considers the hold which brewed in his press as a business of the nation and of the world, the attack seemed to be foolish, but that Mr. Ford has any inherent animosity toward the descendants of Abraham. His disposition seems to be one of universal
Evidently the attack could not have been inspired by the desire to benefit mankind by warning them against the insidious encroachment of the Semitic encephalism in modern civilization for the world fully feels that the Semitic floor civilization is on the whole worse.
The Hebrew race can fairly be described as Honer described the ancient Ethiopians a less Jew, whispered to the wizard wager maker of history had encountered the sharp business sagacity of the Jew and had come out second best this would not do to the wizard and only quality which we are wont to ascribe to the wizard of Detroit.
Whatever the cause, however our concern is mainly with consequence. The whole Jewish race is the insult and set to work in vigorous fashion to make their resentment effective. An insult consists in wanty assailing the character of the gilet or an oppressive denunciation serves the purpose and when one insult another, he always expects the offended party to give up power and he who does not react to an insult is considered a coward. It is the first step in the test of power and an insult is the first blow to when an insult is the first react to the full extent of his power.
No gentlemen will insult any human being unless he feels that it is necessary to maintain his own respect for him, or to afford to one's fellow-man without any just provocation is as mean and unmanly as human nature is capable of. An insult not only applies to an individual but also to a race or a nation. Where the opprobrium is so widely distributed no one feels the sting with keen personal integrity. Edmund Burke says that you cannot indict a man because that organization and societies are androids to preserve their name and so safeguard it from wanton impugment.
Affects Every Individual
I read somewhere, the other day, where a publication sent an advertisement with a job. I was surprised by the legal profession. It was doubled intended as a harmless pleasanry, but a distinguishable to the extent of half million claims, claiming that his practice had been injured to his extent for the job. I do not know how this suit will eventuate, but the principle involved is one of great significance. The cast upon a class effect every individual of that class. This ought to make us very careful about reflecting upon any aggregate of people in the law for the legal profession.
I might digress right here to say that Negro writers and publicists are perhaps the greatest of all. With them as a epithet or insulting designation is an ever ready weapon. This applies to individuals as well as to groups. The ready is the most important factor only rashness of temper but poverty of mind. It is so much easier to denounce your adversary than it is to prove him unworthy. It costs more intellectual effort to call a man a man to demonstrate his folly.
This hasty resort to denunciation is due only in large part because the aggressor does not feel the weight of responsibility possessed by the restraint of an understanding or good breeding. They know no restraint but the law of libel which they somehow feel will not be resorted to by reason of the slight importance of the indigner in lawless language. Merciful Immunity From Penalty It is also to be neglected to notice what freedom our orators, newspapers and publicistsIndemnify in a Republican Party, the Democratic Party, the South, the Church, the Prohibitionists, the Ministers of the Gospel, the Philanthropists, and the people because of some real or failed failure to meet the full measure of their hopes and expectations. The futility of the procedure does not seem to be the least. They feel secure in their merciful immunity from the appropriate penalty.
In the Ford incident, the Jews have taught the world a hedonistic lesson. "No one insults me with impunity," is a motive of the Jewish community in the Dearborn Independent throw out the racial suit to the world. Jewry accepted the challenge. The Hebrew race both as a people and as a nation has the allegiance of the insult. They put in operation effective machinery to resent it. Just what that machinery is, we are not permitted to know, but suffice it to say that after service of the Ford race, Jewry will fit to offer the Hebrew race an ample and adequate apology. He acknowledged that he had done incalculable an apology to this people, an apology to the Jewish community made for wounded feelings and material damage. "I buy your parson" is a poor company.

tion for the wounded spirit. And yet Mr. Ford has done all that he could to repair the irreparable wrong.
He did reach this conclusion by the inner promptings of his own goodness? It may be so; but maybe the amende honorable was suggested by the compelling force of circumstances which the alertness of the wounded race had brought about. However, this may be the lesson he must make in responsible authority more cautious about insulting a whole race of people. The Jews have placed the wounded and a just holding to a just accountability, the man who would take advantage of their public influence to malign their race and blood.
Generalizations
Let us hope that the white publicists will take heed in dealing with the Negro. Their debasing generality is a great damage to the Colored race. Such insinuations as — all Negroes will steal, steal and that the race cannot be entrusted with sex to a man, because of every member of the branded blood. It is incumbent upon every Negro to resent and resist all such expressions from whatever source they may emanate. The weaker group is dependent upon its reputation. Woman's reputation means more to her than a man's to him because she the man. The more she comes more dependent upon the good name of the group in proportion to the strength and independence of the aggregation to which she belongs. To deny virtue to womanhood is a reflection upon every woman which every man with a mother, sister or daughter will resent even the insulted sex is unable to do so.
"Dago." "Sheeney."
"Cracker" and "Nigger"
The Negro being the victim of racial insult might therefore be the practice of which he is the victim. Even in levity we may deeply wound an innocent member of a group and gender despite. Such acts are common in the Cracker, should not be applied to races and classes if we do not wish to be treated to as niggers. My good old teacher is the best, which is worth more than all of the philosophy which I have learned in the books—Pollentiness is the cheapest in the world and pays the best." Henry Ford has learned and taught the world a salutary lesson. He taught Jew. for teaching him that lesson.
Contented And Happy
Some time since, a mother and two children escaped from slavery in "the low countries", and came up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers to be married. After being in that city a few days, she heard that the agents of her master were in pursuit of her, and she searched the city, and were searching her out. She had breathed the pestilential atmosphere of slavery and the pure nature of her master, for God had adapted her lungs to inhale it. She received never to become a slave again. Especially was she determined that her children, for God had adapted her lungs to inhale it. Fearing her pursurers might learn the place of her concealment, and if they did not succeed in taking her, she would be robbed of her children, by robbing her of them while sleepy, never did she for many days, go to bed at night without first bind her, by robbing her of bed cord, and depositing a razor or sharp knife under her pillow; so that, if suddenly seized her children, and then her own, rather than be carried back into happiness.
BILLS
(Lament Of A Modern Man)
Gee, I freatly had some shockings,
Oh, my gosh, milady's stockings
Now the prices they are paying
for their things are surely laying
Every husband in his grave.
Pur doesn't My, they keep me working
Two whole months, there is no shaking.
With all the fashions changing so.
All her frocks are forty dollars,
And one each for all her collars;
I can't last so long, I know.
Yes, her shoes, she has so many
That she's never needing any,
But she's always buying more.
They are low-outs, Little leather
That protects her from the weather,
Man, she really makes me sore.
Then she buys them every season
Never with a single reason
Step up, other things do.
To just follow them, keeping
Up with all the Joneses, hearing
Extra debts upon me too.
Now for hats, she sets me easy.
With the prices I am hard.
My poor brain is whirling round.
Yes, a new one hair, bar hair
Every March, December, May,
And to have them she is bound.
Goop, I wish that this were Eden
And milady wasn't heedin'
Any others of her kind.
That she were a garb like Eve's:
Just one or two, some leaves.
And I didn't have the hills upon a
mind.

Is five-year-old Elizabeth Brevard,
622 W. Saratoga street, the youngest
snake charmer in the world?
Her father, Rufus Brevard, a professional showman, who is temporarily residing at the above address, savs she is and has been playing with the deadliest reptiles ever since she has been old enough to walk.
She is a well-qualified an engagement at the Suburban Gardens, Washington, D.C. where he has exhibited most of the summer, has been engaged in the business since he was a child.
She was a boy down his South carotown, a carnival played the town and the snake man asked him to help him with his boxes. At first Brevard said he was wary of the reptiles, but after several weeks the carnival, he learned to handle them and later started a shake show.
Has 28 Snakes
For more than eighteen years, Brevard has lived with and traveled with his snakes, increasing his stock from time to time. The number of snakes range from a 17-boa Boa Constrictor down to little snakes not more than one foot and represent nearly ever species, to be caught in America. The snakes live on meat and eggs. The most dangerous among the lot is the ragged snake, but it is kept harmless by removing it up bag from his throat nine days.
The reptiles are all known by name and 'Caesar', a Boa Constrictor, measuring 13 feet is seldom kept in a case. It will respond to name and name, and will like little watchdog, permitting one to come near her unless she consents. Another snake answers to the name of Baba. The child has travelled through 23 states with his father and is the bit of his performance conquering snakes, declared Mr. Brevard, is merely a case of showing which has the greatest will power. When he first catches a snake he has to fight with it until it gives up and stops, and then it gives up and is abducted, but some snakes have to be held from three to five hours before they give up. Once conquered a snake can be trained to do many things within five or seven hours, the snakes are moved from place to place in large steel boxes. They sleep from the latter part of October until the early spring.

"Porgy" Announced For Guild, "Sugar Cain", "Showboat" To Follow
NEW YORK. — The Theatre Guild made announcement here last week that it will produce "Porgy" at the Guild Theatre this season with a permanent company of colored actors.
"Porgy" is a morbid story of the life of a deformed begar in an Atlantic Coast, town, from the novel by Dubose Heyward, write. It deals almost entirely with a degraded group showing their secretiveness of life, the whites and fatalistic views of life.
The story was selected by Cecil B. Demille, white, noted producer of the "Ten Commandments" and other tremendous productions, for a photoplay, Paul Robeson and Florence Mills being mentioned for the sitting Plans for filming it were abandoned.
It is expected that a number of actors will be used in "Sugar Cain," a drama scheduled by Broadway producer Frank Iannucci who won his first laurels with "In Abraham's Bosom," last season at the Provincetown Playhouse. Florenzi Ziegler, the producer of "Bellies," said to be contemplating beginning production of "Showboat," a play that calls for a background of colored characters.
To Hold Schubert Centennial In 1928
NEW YORK—Plans for a centennial in 1928 of Franz Schubert, are gathering international headway in the world's music capitals with an enthusiasm that promises to make a significant contribution to history with twenty-six nations cooperating. The outstanding event in the plans for the Schubert celebration is the offering, recently announced, by the Columbia Phonograph Company of international predecessors, $200,000. The final completion of Schubert's famous Unfinished Symphony. Recent cables from Europe report that the governments of France, Italy, Germany, Austria, and Czecho-Slovakia have granted cordial official recognition of Schubert's role as Minister Honor of France and resident Masaryk of Czecho-Slovakia unite in hailing the competition as "a constructive educational leadership by the United States for musical culture, and as a forward step in understanding the peoples of the New and the Old World."
Though other great compositions have been completed after their composer's death—Mozart's Requiem, Wöbler's Sketches, the operas of Tchaikovsky, Trumpet No. 10, the Columbia Phonograph Company scarcely hopes to find a new Schubert among the competitors for the prize. Its immediate purpose is to encourage a return to melody, to the masterpiece, through popular interest, to the millions who have never heard of it. The American Executive Committee will foster, during Schubert Year, concerts, lectures, school, music, and broadcasting. Schubert's biography and a special edition of Schubert Masterworks Records.

Theatre Color Question Is Not Present At Circus
Evidently all Baltimore's beggars and blind men are very faithful about reading the newspapers, signboards and other forms of advertisements. They heard about the wild west show out at (or better to save a quarter mile from) Edmondson avenue and Bentalou St. Wednesday and Thursday. To be exact, nobody about the show, the people who didn't go to the grounds to see the show lined up the street selling peanuts and popcorn. A blind man held down one of the busiest corners, another blind man stood up and saw like Nero at the burning of Rome. He got little more attention than he would have received during the firing of that city people were in a hurry to get to the show and not to give money
Touches Of Color
Touches of color were visible in invenders and the wares they sold. There were crab men who sold a crab cake for five cents and another about one-third larger for ten cents. One enterprising man waged a wager between interlernels and his white brother exhibited the latest model Dodge and Franklin. The color question, so rigidly stressed in downtown local theatres, is only a negligible quantity at a circus or wild west show. Brown, black, yellow, white and the intermediate shades mingled freely out at the show grounds and sat together in the big room. The man who entered the side-show in the hope of seeing a real honest-to-goood minstrel was disappointed. Walter E. Mason, designated on the painting as the minstrel owner, merely sat on an open raised platform and directed his 13-piece orchestra that might well have been a municipal concert organiza-
The "minstrel" consisted of a three or five minute vaudeville act by singers and dances. No black faces, no plantation scene, only jokes that people laugh at on Keith's circus denoting that the minstrel has lost his litchi.
Not Like Old Times
They say that human nature is a constant factor, or nearly so, making a change only when it matters. Crowds, however not "bite" as they did a decade ago and they marvel at what the most fantastic circus man has to offer. The seven foot girl was "just a tall kid", a man passed me at plates appalled at the good man in a box, but no one even let escape a sound that showed surprise or wonder.
The fellows who sell the pink lemonade and offer ice cream cones at ten cents each could be heard, say, that he's getting to be the bank now.
The fact that a man can stand on his head on a horse that is galloping at full speed means nothing. A baby elephant dresses itself. The circus and other big travelling shows are still big factors in the entertainment of the small town. In cities, where one can get his kick from genuine naughty revues and drink red liquid refreshment in a cabbage patch, a little bit, the circus parade finishes a mild thrill, the show nothing.

NEW YORK. — T. M. Millard Henry young poet and writer, has contributed an article on Paul Lawrence Dunbar, as a poet, to the Poet Lorc magazine, of Boston, one of the noted poets of the country. The article throws many interesting side lights on the life and career of Dunbar, and gives the famous poet a high place in American literature. The article is one of the strongest that has ever been written of Dunbar, and will doubtless bring on an interesting controversy. The editors of the Poet Lorc magazine were so impressed with Henry that they have invited him to send a collection of his works to a collection with a view of having them published.
He is a poet of fine ability and his poems have attracted wide attention, and brought forth much praise from well known literary critics. Henry was a master of literature. He has made a thorough study of the works of Dunbane and has high admiration of him as a writer of verse.

MCCOLLUM'S WEEKLY STAGE REVIEW
MCCOLLUM'S WEEKLY STAGE REVIEW
By AFRO Theatrical Editor Wanted: New Themes
After more than a quarter century of exploitation, theatrical audiences are calling for new themes. The original ones: stealing, being afraid of policemen, getting in jail, being in love with a high value, electing a man in jail, and from ghosts are calling for at least new arrangement. The scenes: Mississippi boat landing, cotton field, with a log cabin and a New York cabaret are more or less prevalent than cigar advertisements. Belle Lemon's "Dashing Dinah" company demonstrated more spirit here last week in its show than any group of the season, yet it failed to be a sensation because it mattered. The movies and scenes are much worse in many other companies. When one injects something original as was done in the quartette act of "Plantation Days" and in Miller's "All-Nations" revue, the genre is more optimistic and producers do not gray so fast.
Irvin C. Miller, the Goldberg interests and a few others are holding an open market for material from persons who write books, skills, acts and music. There is a chance for the man who believes that he can conjure up better scenes than he is now paying for.
Still Homeless
After getting a few hundred dollars worth of publicity and actually selling all the seats in a Washington theatre as a starter for the proposed actors' home in Baltimore, the tumult and show up for the performance and show up for the performance and there is no indication of a new venture for the fund.
The question of a home and the one of a national organization among performers are of vital importance to every man who gets his livelihood from acting. Agitation and work from within the ranks are the only factors that will count in putting the project on hold. Men who are not allowed in their welfare will not allow union membership of a few members keep them from affecting the larger and important union among themselves and a home for those for whom the footlights have become dimmed.
Why Not Applaud?
These paragraphs are written at the suggestions of members of the last ten companies that have played the Royal Theatre here in Baltimore Expression of appreciation, they say, is not one of the virtues of Baltimoreors. After many of the actors give their best, in an act or a scene they are given little or no applause.
Many of them are not up to a standard that deserve applause, but as one comedian put it: "Something that some of us do must be good."
Washington audiences allow the actor to know whether he is liked or not. And Baltimoreors do the same: "upstairs" in the downtown theaters.
Why not give the actor a little "hand" in the theatre where you can at least breathe freely?

Says Ethel Waters Is Most Dignified Disher Of Dirt
Artist Must Learn New Play Weekly For Six Months
Homer Hubbard To Dp Heavy Roles At Virginia Theatre, Thought Of Mother Ruling Passion
NEW YORK. — Harry Bragg. former Baltimorean, sees Ethel Waters as a skilful handler of obscene themes in her appearance in "Africana". Earl Dancer's revue which is beginning its fifth week at Daly's.
The writer is the son of Dr. Bragg historian, and actor of St. Jude P. E. Church and Mark Park the department state offices in New York. Dr. Bragg says:
"In by-gone years the merits of a performance were largely made manifest by the gentry who occupied its unreserved section nearest the roof. In more recent years the sentiments of the gallery guards have ceased to be an element in the destiny of a show, being duly supereded by a reviewer, whose critique or drawn from an analysis more less scientifically made, is in the apologetic tone of a gallery guard that I venture to a homely comments on the "Africana", which I so thoroughly enjoyed.
on our tour. Musically, there is hardly a number which still lingers with me, yet the orchestra and choral work were resplendent with harmony. The audience suffered a severe damage when the saxophonist Eight was not permitted to render more than a few numbers. A sneaking feeling had just settled over the customers that the boys were now about to put on their "best works", probably some more close harmony without the aid of orchestra. Though they were proficient, indeed there was no need for chording. Some of the best dancing to which the theatre-going public has ever been exposed was served up in Miss Waters' revue and in this Baby and Bobby Goins excelled in. In spite of this clever performance, Riley and his team "Step Second" showed the play up to a place where the going was made hard even for the Goins.
"Glenn and Jenkins, as is their usual custom, 'swept a nasty deposit to the satisfaction of those present. 'Of course, the fore-going on indicates the caliber of support which attaches that artistic perseverance. Ethel Waters, who from start to finish dominates the revue and reaches the high-water mark of the evening when she 'sums up' in the second act with "Some Songs You Have On Your Record." Been said the songs are too replica with the ribald and the slob- and that one needs shock-ab-sothers, when she sails forth.
"It must be conceded, however, that Miss Waters can "dish the dirt" with more dignity and grace than any artist who has strolled behind the ooatings, and the inhabitants which she chants are actually compelling. When she sings "Take Your Black Bottom Outside" it is with men of Lord or Lady that she commands her erstwhile boy friend to remove his dark and beyond the porch. He amabilishe sings the songs "Take It Where You Had It Last Night."
"The wayward consort has returned home to find his entry barred and his former mistress red-headed with anger. He insists that he will be with her. If that the female of the species pulls herself up to her full height, rares back akimbo, and with a finality that brooks no further appeal, sings like an emotional opera star. "I'll Call the Law." The transition is the same as minked with defiance — Charley is elected now I don't want you no more.
"In so much of her repertoire alone, as Miss Waters presents each week of their money. Reality the lady has no duplicate in the way she can private, and the things she can articulate, there she can certainly does stimulate and well nigh fascinate you right on out of this world."
RICHMOND, VA. — The Hippodrome Theatre here begins a six-month period this week with Homer Hubbard, character artist, closing with Eddie Lemon's "Dashing Dinky," the play he made. The company will be headed by Joe Bright, who closed this week with his "Poro Babes," and who directed the stock for several months last year. Others in the group will include Jaceline Anderson, a comedian and dramatic actress, and Maybelle Brown, formerly of "Babe" Brown's revue.
Mr. Hubbard is possibly the leading character artist among almost entirely through experience. Making a bestding as a member of a Philadelphia glee club some fifteen years ago, he ran away from home to join John Leblanc, a darker character. When interviewed at the Royal Theatre at Baltimore, last week, Mr. Hubbard raid that leaving his home was not done with evil intent but to aid his agreed grandmother, who had taken him and his sister, both orphans.
Through all the years he has remembered her and has purchased a home for her in the Quaker City, Havin's. Mr. Hubbard supplemented it with study and reading so that he impresses one as being above the average in training.
Working with the various producers, he has benefited from the efforts of Joe Bright, Sandy Burns, and Hill. With the team of Hubbard and Davis he worked in vaudeville and led his "Midnight Serenaders" over the T. O. Other ensembles have included tour with Miller and Slater's "Creole Folies" and Salem Tutt Whitney's "Smarter Set". Mr. Whitney is producing a new show this season and offered Hubbard the chance, which he will do.

Tired Feeling
Above is a picture of Mrs. Lena McCann. 709 Short 6th St. Birmingham, Ala. She says: I was feeling bad, nervous and I was well at night and did not have much appetite. I was thin and fed tired all the time. I did not feel like going places. Life wasn't much pleasure. I spoke to my mother-in-law. I told her that Cardui had done much for her. I sent for Cardui right away; kept on taking it, and in a few weeks I felt stronger. I took on more weight, ate more, rested better, and we had weak spells. I took 6 bottles in all. It sure helped me."

Mary Marshall, 803 W. Fairmount avenue, in an attempt to end it her to take these blonde wives to Mercury tables in her home. Monday. The young woman was rushed to the University Hospital where she met the police. She refused to tell police why she took the poison. riffs, caused police to raid the place. Under the command of Captain Bainton, she riffed the ballet where they were met by a sentral who commanded them to halt.

the Machine Guns
Immediately the whole police department became active and police patrols the streets and began a wholesale search for firearms. This search reached the residential section where the police found a home where civic homes taking such arms as they found there. Although Milton Miyard, said to be the son of a city-wide search being made, has not been apprehended, many arrests have been made, and books and literature organization have been relied on by the police.
700 Strong
The Chattanooga unit of the Gerv organization is said to have more than 700 members well supplied with funds. Polloe declare they have had to expend the sums of dollars with which to disseminate "red" propaganda in the south. A local dealer reported that they had attempted to purchase 200 high powered repeating rifles and adopted a uniform similar to that worn by U.S. soldiers. That leaders of the organization do not propose to reinsulquin their hold on their members is borne out by the fact that dozens of meetings defiance of the police have been held.
General Dissatisfaction
An Afro-American staff representative found that while leading group efforts to address the Garvey movement nor some of its methods of procedure, all agree that whitespread dissatisfaction in that section. No Red Propaganda
Most of them discount the "red" protesters and subterfuge the police department is using to break up an organization which may drive labor from that organization. They say Jim-crowism, disfranchisement and injustice are still rampant and that such organizations as the Black Panther Party are impinging on a downtrodden group.
Jim-Crow De Luxe
On the Memphis Special, Dixie's deluxe jim-crow train, the Afro-corporate race passengers complained to the race passengers to a small compartment with the news butcher and conductor, not the race officials, who were charged full first-class fare. Pulling out from Morristown, Tennessee, an old gentleman boarded the train and remarked, "Is this the way I have to ride after paying first-class fare?"

BANG!
LEAGUE READY FOR SANHEDRIN SAYS DR. MOTON
U. S. SLOW TO GIVE
THE NEGRO JUSTICE
Waiters
ST. LOUIS, MO.—Dr. R. R. Moton, President of the National Negro Business League opened its 28th session with the most startling idea ever advanced from the League platform.
In it he visited the "growing opposition" of the decker Negro Normons, and the failure of government, city state and national to give "justice" to the Negro.
This is no new theory, but in this case the chief spokesman of the national business men; from the principal of Tuskegee Institute, the Smith's chief spokesman and from the successor to the late Booker T. Washington.
The Sapbedrin
More important still was Dr. Morton's plan for nation-wide cooperation of all Negro organizations up to the point of a program. It was the "Sanhedrin" idea promulgated by Dr. Kelly Miller a few years ago. Neither the National Negro Business League nor any other single organization has a directive service until somehow a way is found by which a larger number of all these various organizations can coordinate their forces and center of operations. In some definite enterprise which they will support as a unit, subordinating for the time mere individual personalities to the great common objective which transcends the interest of individual or any separate group.
Business Interests
This is, especially true as it affects business interests and the larger economic aspects of the Negro business. This will help for sacrifice. It will mean the surmergence of mere personalities, it will call for time, energy and some race force will have to do to a larger extent than hitherto what other races and groups have had to do in the past, better to accomplish the very task of making sure that our own hearts are yearning.
League Ready to Operate
The National Negro Business League stands ready and willing to accept such a challenge, and to put itself in the best position to succeed.

One Good Woman
By THE GLOBE TROTTER
Ive met many good women in travel-
ing around
Mother's garden and sweetheart's
garden
But one of the best and sweetest
Ive found
Lives right here in Baltimore.
In trying to get pastors to adver-
tise
To this good lady I was sent---
Ive visited lots of them and their
wife
Back in the days of ten:
In a dwelling on McCallion and
Praeton street
She led me through the open door
To a ground floor church as clean
and neat
As ever I'd seen before.
She told the story of her life
Seemed to think I'd understand
Of all her work through sin an'
strike
They all talk to a newspaper man.
She bought her first home by nursing
Attending the sick at night
As she sat by them the teachings she'd bring
In telling them all to do right.
She lives in the church—haa a small motor car
The door knocks hits only on two
To the sick and the needy, near and far
With the help of the good Lord she gets through.
Two had troubles she said "didn't know what to do"
I brought down and prayed the good Lord
And so answered or other He pulled me
through
With the help of Lawyer McGard.
She lives in the church in a room up
stairs
Midst the girls she's helping to lead right
She helps them all to say their prayers.
Players
Protect fighting with all of her might.
Why not get married I'm sure you would be fine
To help in your work you should wed
Lord knows I'm too busy. I haven't the time
To minister love and teach gospel, she said.
Tired way late they put her to bed. That hurt in good it is seen.
They all want to show her their loves not dead
This dear good soul Mother Green.

Smith was a boxing foot and would have been nobody's duck-soup in the ring that night. He kept Eat 'Em Up looking for him from the back when he came in when the former craned his neck to find the latter, he found a glove in his face.
Smith dodged, ducked, sidestepped and "black-battered" his way in circles around the year in the first round that Eat 'Em up had to have a barrage of rights and lets to the face and body that almost unmercifully sent "Eat 'Em Up" out before the gong ended. With a series of hooks to the midriff Smith opened up his unceasing slaughter in the second round, and after one minute and forty seconds of fighting his coach and went down for the count of eight. He tried to set up but was so completely dazed that he fell on his face to the canvas and was carried to his corner where his seconds administered sniffing salts.
Tuesday's victory was the third consecutive knockout for Smith. Next month the one he might will meet Young Jack Johnson of York, Pa. in the main bout.

WYATT COPS MONUMENTAL NET TITLE
Lincoln Univ. Tennis Captain Outgenerals Alfred Moore In Finals
WILL REPRESENT CITY IN NATIONAL TOURNEY
Dope Upset As Crowl Runs Up And Young Moore Shows Lack Of Control
Tennis dope was partially upset here when Donald Wyatt, Lincoln University senior and tennis club captain, won the right to represent the Monumental City Tennis Club at the National Open Tennis Tourney at Hampton next week by defcating Alfred Moore, 4-6, 6-1, 6-1, 6-2.
The local journey played on the courts at Druid Hill Park, started Tuesda yo last week, and after being interrupted by rain ended Wednesday work
DOPE
Throughout the journey tennis pros acted like the weather man, and in several instances dope was upset. Those who had watched the young hopefuls getting in form during the summer and the fast developing of Moore not only expected him to go to the finals, but expected him to be at Hampton, where he is also a senior.
One of the surprises of the tourney, however, was the playing of Crowl public school teacher who showed remarkable generalship. Crowl's debut of Rich, regarded as the best of the surfers, was a distinct success. Dopesters expected the finals to be played out by Rich and Moore, but in spite of the Tilden like reach and drives of Rich. Crowl placed and lobbed out a victory against him. When he woke up in Moore, he was before the spectacular drives the youngster drove to his left. If Crowl develops his lob and improves his back hand stroke, his brain work and generalship will make him a dangerous contender.
N. SEMI-FINALS
N. Carrion and Wynn won in the finals-finals Wyatt defeated over Crowl 6-1, 6-2.
While both players in the final match plave desensational, the outcome of the game was a combination of wild strokes by Moore and consistently good placement and generalship by Wyatt.
Moore has developed the swift forehand to a remarkable degree, but seemed to have lost control of it in the game with Wyatt. His back hand short swing has been swift and accurate and vibrant with youth. He also showed class in handling jobs, his overhead work being sensational. He had a sharp head, quick decision and accurate placements. They won.
Wyatt's service is dangerous. He knows how to cash in on his opponent's weak spot and several times during the playing with Moore, he caught him off guard.

CRAWFORD AND GRIFFIN MIX IN SEMI-FINALS
inary Bout
In the second big "Y" box show to be held Friday night, August 12. Kid Dennis Moody and Calvin Lawson, will go six rounds for the lightweight championship of the Y. M. A. Lautenbach night week in the first of the elimination title bouts "Leffy" Cooper of Sandtown, won a close 5-round decision over "Della" Campbell for the wetterweight crown. Moody, who has been holding the lightweight title of the "Y" for some time, may竞赛 as Lautenbach fairly good scraper may not offer any too much opposition. Battleting Gant, who defeated Moody in the same Campbell-Cooper card would have been a more suitable opponent. The former is tall and rangy, and has a terrific swing that has become a terror to all who go in the ring with him.
Others who will be on the card are: Smiling Kid Crawford vs. Leon Griffin in the semi-final: Kid Eat End Up vs. Battling Bottles both on the card. Robert Lee, Shermont Gant; Battleing Pervey vs. Robert Lee; Clarence Redd vs. Battleing Bill. The latter four fights to go four rounds each.

Of Ten Bingles
ATLANTIC CITY.—The Bacharach Giants turned the tables on the Hilldale club and evened the series at one-all by taking Monday's conflict, score 10 to 1. Both teams are near the top of the race, and a short winning streak will put either in front.
Both "Nip" Winters and Corbett were entirely too easy for the Lundy-men. The Bees clouted not only when it was necessary but also when it was unnecessary. All told, they got hits. Winters lasted for Three and a third inings, and was pounded for eleven blows. The other was made against Corbett.
Luther Farrell, a much improved southpaw, again won for the locals.
He gave the Darby Daisies their only run in the second inning, when he walked Bill Johnson with the base loaded. Johnson with the base immediately after, giving out that walk and fanned the next three men to face him.
Ambrose Reid broke into the line-up for the first time in many weeks and connected for a triple to center field in both the first and second innings.

THRU 5 YEARS AGO
Leroy Wilkins Heads Harlem
Committee Of Fans And
Bosters
Rooters
NEW YORK.—A celebration will be held here Sunday, August 14, in honor of "Smoky Joe" Williams, veteran right hand pitcher and captain of the Homestead Grays.
Williams is winding up a fine game series against the Lincoln Giants on that day and a group of Harlem fans have gotten together to show him they still consider him the premier pitcher in baseball.
Incidentally, this is Joe's twentieth anniversary as a pitcher.
He joined the original Lincoln Giants team that team boasted such stars as Louis Sancop, Leroy Grant, John Henry Lloyd and Francis. He was the leading pitcher and manager of the Lincoln Giants until four years ago. At that time it was generally thought that his days as a pitcher were over but John Lloyd of Homestead Grays he has proved that he is still better than the average.
Personally, he is one of the best liked men in the game and a Harlem committee, headed by Leo Wilkins, military secretary and a staunch friend of Joes, is getting up the celebration in his honor.
Mr. Wilkins had planned to go to Saratoga Springs the early part of this week but when he heard that he immediately was coming to town he immediately asked for a banquet and brain making preparation to entertain him.
The Homestead Grass and Lions Club also held the Three States of New York, Pennsylvania and Florida and Saturday and went to the header of Presbytery Oval, New York on Sunday.
HUBBARD IN FORM BEES TAKE FINAL
Willie Campbell Hurls Good
Ball For Hilldale But Could
Not Win
ATLANTIC CITY—The Bacharach Giants made it two out of three against Hilldale when they won the "rubber game" of the series Tuesday afternoon at Bacharach park, 4 to 2.
The battle presented a hurlers' duel between big Joe Hubbard, of the Bees, and Willie Campbell, of the Darygood form, but Hubbard was the better by Daisies. Both twirlers were in of the two. He shot his fast ball past the Hilldalers and yielded them only eight yards. Campbell gave up eight hits but kept them fairly well contested, except in the sixth session when he yielded three safeties.
The White-Lundy-Marcoll trio can be given credit for having pushed over the victory for Hubbard. Each of these three players scored one run up, and connected for a pair of bits each.
The Bess tallied in the fourth Smith walked and scored on Marcell's long double to left. Jones' sacrifice flipped in the back. While single and Lundy followed side. Smith advanced both runners with a pretty bunt. Marcell's single scored them both. Hildale forged into the run column. Thomas walked and Mackey singled. The double steel and tailed on Judd Johnson's single to right field. Stevens and Lundy made sensational plays a shortstop. Hampshire Giants will invade the resort Sunday for the first game of a series which will continue Monday and Tuesday.
SPORTSMIRBOR
HAS THE GAME CHANGED?
In the Eastern and Western Leagues this season there has been a constant bally-hoo about the attendance. Why don't the fans come in? The question can be answered in the ball-shell—the teams are not playing the ball, but the ball they play is a year or so acro, right in the Eastern League. In practically every game played there are the usual five or six delays the result of impulses and players arguing over decisions. The fans do not pay to come out to see fights and squawks. They get enough of that. Why? With a good, clean, fast baseball game. Something that is interesting, heart-rilling, something to break the old Sunday monotony of sitting around the house all day.

ON THE BIG TIME YER OUT!! Ben Taylor Hurt—Johnson Back In Line Up—"Do Funny" Schedule Brings Hilldale Back Sunday—Bees And Harrisburg Spurt.
By THE ARBITER
Old man Saul Jack has hit the Black Sox, Camp. Next Sunday, will find P. Johnson, diminutive right fielder and king of base stealers back up but Manager Ben Taylor will be on the side line nursing injuries received in the presidential Monday. The return of one and the loss of another leaves the locals weak but and in the infield. It was hoped that the return of Johnson, who has been out three weeks due to a wrist injury, would put the Black Sox in the winning column long enough to cop the second but that realization short. Wilson will probably take Taylor's position at first base with Eggleton going to third and Clark behind the

He left the Darbies for Cum Spent four days looking over the Smoky City, and after deciding he did not like, returned to Philly Saturday.

WHITE STEALS HOME IN TENTH INNING
Bees' Centerfielder Slides To Safety And Royals Are Beaten 5-4
LEFTY FARRELL SHINES AS A RELIEF HURLER
Fans Two Anxious Royals And Third Grounds Out To End Tenth
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. — (Friday)—All Baba and his forty thieves never stole anything of more value to themselves than Chaney White's theft of home plate-was to the Bacha-Glants yesterday afternoon. The platter pluffer enabled the Bees to nose out the Brooklyn Royal Giants in the tenth inning of an Eastern Colored league game at Bacharach park, 5 to 4. Chaney was the big hero of the five games registered two hits and scored three of the Lundymen's five counterts. But Manager Dick Lundy and Luther Farrell were in for a confrontation of the praises.
Lundy pulled some John J. McGraw strategy when he sent Luther Parrell in to reilere Roy Roberts. Roy had allowed only five hits in the previous nine innings. In the tenth he started off by walking Chris Smith, who crushed and in an attempt to catch him at first, Wilie Jones threw wild, and Smith went to third while Brooks took second. "The body out of" highpockets" Hudspeth came to bat left-handed, so Lundy called on the southpaw "Parrell. But Manag-ger, he went to Lundy and went to bat himself for Hudspeth. However, Parrell was in form and breezed Redding and Cason in rapid succession. W. Smith parrell to Dallard, retiring the side.
It was White's steal home alone that decided the game, and White had to relief hurling the Bees came to bat in the tenth. White was first up and walked. He stole second and went to third on Landy's long fly to centering the defense. Two were down and Flournoy was just getting ready to pitch to Marcell when a strenk of lightning in the form of Chaney White hurled the ball across the face and across home plate—safe with the winning run.

"I was a sick man—could hardly go to work at all," says Mr. Chas. E. Parker, of Charleston, Ill. "I had severe throbbing headaches, dizzy spells, indigestion, tightness in my chest, shortness of breath. "My back ached and I could not stay in bed with any ease. Any way I burned I was in misery.
"I tried different remedies till I heard of Black-Draught. I took a couple of good, big doses of Black-Draught and saw a big change in my health and albeit better. I kept it up till I took a package. I was then able to go back to my work. I am a railroader and my work is hard. I have kept myself fit by taking Black-Draught, and though I'm 62 years old I can do my work with ease right along with younger men. I am never without Black-Draught.

Simple Home Treatment That Is Giving Amazing Results
The world progresses. Today alliments that took weeks to cure can now be ended in a few days. If you have varicose veins or bunches you can start today to bring them back and if you are wise you will do so.
Just get an original bottle of Moon's Emerald Oil at any dispensing pharmacist and apply it night and morning as directed the emerald oil acts as a penetrating, and only a little is required.
After a few days' treatment the veins will begin to grow smaller and by regular use will soon reduce to normal. Who want to reduce varicose veins, or get rid of running sores and ulcers, should not hesitate to get a bottle at once. It is so powerful that any pharmacy can supply you, and sells lots of it.

Matthews Sees Other Evils Than United's 10 Cent Fares
"Post" Quiet On Druid Hill Ave. "Express Cars". A Few Bombs After Every Lynching Would Help Stop Dixie Mobs. Northwestern Police Who Use Clubs Make Race Friction
By RALPH MATTHEWS
Thoughts while glancing through the papers.—The Baltimore "POST" wages a relentless fight on the United Railway for a tenure raise. They brand it as a "gouge" and a "grand steal". So far as this light affects the race, the greater percentage of the race are in the laboring class and can least afford such an increase at the present wage scale. But I wonder the "Post" is indifferent to the fight for the "people" or merely making a grand stand play?
Other wise
It is simply I wonder why the "Post" did not raise a similar how when the same United Railways put express cars on Druid Hill avenue, there, not only incontinence, the hundreds of residents but also daily endangering the lives of school children and depreciating the pro-immigrant workers 50 per cent by rummaging.

A Lesson From Anarchists
Is there a lesson to be learned from the "Sacco-Vanzetti bombings"? The Sunday Sun binomials? From these examples of politicism and advocates a merless repression of such outbreaks by the government. What if that the whole nation sensed that the case of those men who have been given the benefits of all rights and privileges of the law and were aided by the bright minds in the profession? Does this alone over the hundreds of innocent men and women who are the victims of mob violence in the South without the slightest semblance of a trial?
Sympathizers
The answer is simple Sacco and Vanzetti have behind them sympathies who are not afraid to violence to justice and protection. Their anthems have fulfilled their responsibilities have come back after our pleas for justice and protection and have answered about promptly after every lynching would show America the necessity of passions an anti-lynching law?

From A White Man's Point Of View
Republican Party Myth BY V. F. CALVERTON
The last time we talked about the economic basis of race prejudice, and showed how the white man's attitude toward the Negro was due to monetary fluctuations. This time we shall show how the white man has justified his economic and political position under the title of humanitarian has been deceived by this gesture. One of the myths which has grown out of the slavery struggle has been that connected with the Republican party. Lincoln and the Republican party were both anti-slavery selflesses they have come to represent social salvation. Such an attitude, however, is at once injurious and false. It is injurious to the Negro because he is a political player by Big Boss and it is false because it does not coincide with historical fact.
MORE STRATEGIC THAN SINGERE The fight for the emancipation of the Republican party until the Civil War had taken a crucial turn, and the Proclamation of Emancipation had expedient. It was an act as we shall show, that was more strategic than sincerely. The only ones who actually fought for the emancipation of the Republican party, often was akin to martyrdom, were the Abolitionists, among whom Garrison, Lovejoy and Whittier were conspicuous. The Republican Party did not run upon a platform advocating the destruction of slavery as a social system. On the contrary, it specifically stated where it already existed, but desired only to prevent its extension.
This was a distinct, economic resolve. It was directed against the control of the states. The prevention of the extinction of slavery meant that the balance of power would revolve in the hands of the North. This was not idealism but economic and political slavery. In this election campaign Lincoln opposed the limitation and not the destruction of slavery. Lincoln expressed the economic tendencies of his era. When the war arraigned on the slave population, the slavery institution had been threatened with annihilation, but because its power of control in Congress had been usurped by Abraham Lincoln nor the Republican Party attempted to free the slaves at the beginning of the conflict and not at all. The slave-system was allowed to continue until an opportune moment arrived when the gesture of compulsion became a practical man.
ABOLITIONISTS INSISTENT
When was the war declared?
At a time when the political and military situation made it exigent. Lincoln's own declaration made it explicit. The Abolitionists in the North were becoming threatening and insistent. They were going to refuse to support the war if the abolitionists considered one of its main motives. In addition, McClellan was in danger of winning the nomination and Lincoln. This clone was a grave emotion. By issuing the Proclamation of Emancipation when he did, Lincoln saved the Abolitionists as his adherents, and he also was able to drive a direct blow at the Secession. The Negroes, it was hoped, would disrupt the South. The Negroes would rise in revolt, or at least escape from their masters and join the
It is obvious that this was no idealistic move, inspired by love of the Negro as its free creed, but truth, the Proclamation itself was not taken as a serious reality by the Republican party until after the war. This is proved by the fact that the Proclamation 1867 in order to give it the aspect of reality. This alone is unique in historical precedent. Had the Proclamation of Emancipation concretized, the Congressional confirmation would have been unnecessary indeed absurd. "SELLING OUT RACE." The Court, clearly, was a struggle between the feudal agrarian interests of the South and the industrial capitalistic interests of the North, with slavery representing a concession to the South, and that the vested interests in the Northern states were not deeply concerned about the emancipation of the Negro is proven by their stand toward South. South was not driven by South during the last two centuries.
The Negro today is not allowed to vote in the Southland. He is forced to remain in the Southland, reared sections, and suffer the persecutions of an oppressed people. It is only now that any definite move has been taken toward a decent life, which has been destructive to the Negro. These things the North neglects. They have have persisted now for years, the Negro political bosses who utilize the myth about the party, and in those states where the Negro can and does vote in the Southland, the interests of big business. This is a social tragedy. It is equivalent to "sellin' out" the race.
**REPUBLICAN MATH**
This myth, how many people have been deceived by a myth. This myth, of course, has been foisted upon the Negro and the mass by the force of economic and pseudo-religious beliefs. How real motives can be concealed behind sonorous phrase and political bombast. It indicates how the prosecution of those who have covenanted power.
The Republicans become the symbol of salvation. The Negro finds in the Republican party and Abraham Lincoln the courage and the courage of idealism. It is only when the economic facts involved in the situation are disclosed, that the Negro, in truth all men, can see that this idealism is but a political camouflage, a chimera of the demagogue. The Republican party has used the Negro to its advantage. Where its own advantage worked to the advantage of the state, it has been neglected and scorned. Where it did not, it has been neglected and scorned.
The Negro has yet to work for his own economic advantage. In fact he has yet to discover in what direction lies his own economic power.

From A Woman's Viewpoint
"Yeah, indeed I did her exactly what I thought of her. That's one thing about me. I'm not one bit deceitful. I always speak my mind and tell folks just what I think they should be included. She had been telling me some tale to which I had barely listened, so busy was I watching the expression of her face and say, 'If you want to know the REAL classification of your thoughts and feelings—whether kind or unkind, well-intended or proceeding from malice—get in front of a mirror and watch your face as you think or talk. did that once—and got a shock. So will you, nine times out of ten. Most faces are tell-tales, and they tell the most awful truths on us poor self-deceived mortals sometimes remember the misunderstood indignation. I simply KNOW I was justified in feeling as I did. And I forthwith rehearsed in my mind exactly what I intended to say about the matter."
By more chance a mirror was within the range of my face, and I had to say, and I caught sight of my expression. For a fleeting second I didn't think it was my face, and I on one side was in the room. But no, it was my face and MY expression. Horrors! Then I sat down very quietly and took out this right cousin indication of mine and examined it closely. I turned it up and down and looked at it from all pieces and all points. In pieces and scrutinized all the parts. You see. I knew quite well that my intimation was MIGHTYUS and NECESSARY,—if it wasn't all mixed up with personal bias and self love and some form of pettiness, then its outward appearance would not be unpleasant, disrespectable one I saw in the mirror. There must be something wrong. There was. It was I. Result: I didn't say all those choice things I intended to
So, although I hadn't listened to the lady "who always spoke her mind," I knew that she was often repeated of willyfully, needlessly hurting another's feelings. And the one who had laid off my unkindness was also self-distilled strut. I looked after her and repeated to myself the well-known "O wad some power the little die us, to see ourselves as there see us." I applied blinder free us, and foolish notion." Yet, when you come down to fine points, "blinder and foot to apply on the subject under discussion. A blinder may be excusable, but what excuse can you make for these folks who are unkindly individualize, egism hurting other folks' feelings unnecessarily? And is "foolish" a strong enough adjective to describe an individualize have that they are perfectly capable of sitting in judgment upon the actions of others, and that they have the right to worry weaves accordingly? I hardly think so.
Then, too, those 'same persons who pride themselves upon always saving one who fly right up in the air and throw several different kinds of fists if you say just what it is to THEN. You don't think it is so punishable that won't work two ways. And this one doesn't. You one place particularly where one gets absolutely fed up on this saying just-what-I-think business, and that is among one's best friend and best friend frankness in the home. Husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, and relatives in general so often the unkind, disagreeable things that pop into their heads. Not even as our most taceless members as our most taceless and unpleasant as some members of our own family can be and often are. And worst of it is you who endure them in season and out of season. Yet we wonder why relatives are sometimes so easily weaned from them and endure them in season and out of season. Yet we wonder why relatives are sometimes so easily weaned from them and endure them in season and out of season.
I know a lovely lady whose eyes are so kindly and whose smile is so sweet. I see a few moments is a benediction. I always leave her feeling better, bluer, and wiser than I know I really am, and for a while you can live up to that pleasant sensation. I want to her and said: "Generally speaking, Lovely Lao can you call yourself a truthful" "Modesty aside. I think I can trustfully lay claim to that honor and distinction" "she smilily responds" "Well, then Lovely Lady." "I persisted. "I want to know if you also make a practice of saving just that much, but you don't see how you can combine the two and still be the dear you are." She looked at me out of wise eyes. "Because I love truth I make it the rule of my life: to say only what I think, but I do not consider necessary. PRIVATE think. Thinking a thing doesn't make it true. you know, and it is often wiser and best to weigh and test, and prove reasonably sure they are right.
"Even after I am reasonable sure that I think I is right. I can ask yourself, 'Is it KIND? I can consentiously say I ask myself first. Is it KIND? Second. Is it NECESSARY? Third. Is it INLOVE? So, see you. my dear, how can be truthful, can also say what one thinks, can you self-satisfies, hurt another's feelings." "That is a perfectly lovely way to ask what all the elder ones all the difference in the world, doesn't it?"
"Indeed it does," arced she. "it keeps us from talking too much, makes folks harder and better."
"That third test of your especially interests me." I remarked, pride themselves upon telling what they call the truth. Generally it something which either makes you laugh, makes you fall without being asked. I guess if they waited for the in-law part, they should be pretty mum most of the time. "But, don't you see," eradled the Lovely Lady. "that if you don't want to be mum most of the time, you just ask, 'What are you doing?' and out in a whole lot of nice things to say about folks—

This order has not been revoked. The guild armored officer and 25 men maintained at the tomb as a mark of respect to the deceased and to prevent unauthorized persons from entering.

erence to what appears to be a sud-
den, unwarranted migration to Ak-
ron!
“Negroes throughout the countrs
from practically ail of the Southern
‘and middle Western states and from
as far West as Los Angeles, are
coming to Akron looking for work
Some of them are coming upon the
invitation of relatives and friends
who have lived In Akron: some hove
heard through various souress that
the city {s short of workers. Ak-
ron's Industries are reported on a
firm foundation, and are working a
full-time scheduile. but it 18 feared
that if the intake of new workers
does not cease Akron will he unable
tw take care of the numbers who are
finding thelr way to the city:

“The Urban Leogue. ts making
known the fact that such is not the

BALTO. COUNTY SCHOOL HEADS BROKE FAITH
County Wide Parent-Teachers Body Says Hi School Training Was Promised
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE PLANS BIG MEETING
Drive For County Supervisor Started; Cherry Hits. Wants School
TOWSON, MD.—Baltimore County school officials have broken faith with colored people. This was the report of William Johnson, organizer of County-Wide Executive Committee Federation and an executive committee meeting Friday night in the beautiful new hall of the County Relief Association. Visitors and newspaper men were admitted to hear reports before the committee went into secret session to plan for the big county-wide public meeting of the county's centrally mounted month.
Mr. Johnson told how the county school officials had encouraged colored children and promised to pay the tuition of all eligibles in the Baltimore City High
Then, he said, when this number increased from 69 last year to a possible 120 this year, the officials decided to cut down by giving a last minute, unexpected test, which flung-
ed 79 out of the 89 pupils who took it. The test, he said, did exactly what it was designed to do, namely, cut down the number of children to be sent to high school. Now the parents will have to foot the bill.
Continued on James Two
HAND IN LION'S MOUTH
"We have our hands in the lion's mouth," said Mr. Johnson, who said the county officials had decided that seventh grade education was enough
for "think of that," he said. "They complain colored folks can wear them up to stand尔德 children then wane up to stand尔德 children out in with 7 years of training, where they must compete with others who have high school and college train-
NEW JAIL
"Mr. Johnson said it is whispered around Towson that the new county police station and jail are to make room for the expected large colored criminals in the county. "Wouldn't it be easier to educate them," he said, than to reform them." SUPERVISOR NEEDED Baltimore county needs new schools at Louette and Hartley, Mr. Johnson distances. Our children are not the county's primary users, especially the sum of $44,715,926 to transport white children to consolidated schools. Not one goes for colored children's transportation.
tation. Mr. Jeffrey. Colored men are entitled to the same educational facilities as others. Johnson concluded, saying as organizer, he had reached nearly every section of the county. President Ayers presided.
CHERRY HEIGHTS WANTS
SCHOOLS
Failure of 79 of the 89 children who took the county examination for high school condemns the white supremacy of colored schools, social advancement Johnson of Cherry Heights. The county needs a colored supervisor of
schools.
CHICAGO. Heights, with 12 elementary and 2 junior high school pupils, ask the aid of the county counsel in securing a school. The village is located at the end of the Gay St. line on the Bel Air Road. ATSU SPT HERSINER'S LETTER
Asst. Supt. Hershner gave the RO this week a copy of the AFSchool to the county council. June 14, each abolished eleighth grades in county schools, forbids seventh in pupils who fail three grades, and gave nine days of school in the form of the high school examination.
To the Principals of the Colored Schools: I have talked privately with a few principals in regard to promotions of seventh grade pupils and the rights of the children to repeat the seventh grade work or to attend high school in Baltimore City. It seems necessary to make a written statement for
your guidance in this mission of the Board for Prior to the graduation of high school pupils in Baltimore City, the three schools of the Board given the right grades, the three grades given the right principals of the two-norm schools. Some of the principals of the two-norm schools of the seventh grade pupils to re-enroll in the seventh grade for two years, taking advance work. The principals were followed later that year, and the pupils would be graduated in 1997.
direcited after some of the principals that a number of parents are making requests to the children be permitted to attend the seventh grade year. This is con- duced by the instructions you received and cannot be permitted. It is in effect curing the eighth grade work in the colors
schools who are low grade mentally and have been in school for a long time should be promoted without certificates of graduation should be promoted should be announced to do so. It seems useless to permit children who are fifteen or more years old do not have the ability to profit by further school instruction. It should deal with the pupils who are doing satisfactory work in the seventh grade, for two years when they have done satisfactory work which would entitle them to progress. The cost of Education has devised to pay the cost of high school instruction in the seventh grade and the standards for entrance to high school. In order to raise the standards for entrance to high school, superintendents will conduct an entrance examination on Thursday, June 22. Superintendent of schools. Only seventh and eighth grade will be eligible for examination. are requested to send *PROMPTY* the names of students who would be admitted to Baltimore City high schools by County examination. we would suggest that you classify these pupils in three groups according to ability, highest ability and scholarship. "B" for average ability and scholarship. "C" for low
I am also requesting that yen mail to me the names of the two students in the high schools of whom I are now students in the high schools of whom I am junior or senior high and the year students in the high schools of whom I am how many have withdrawn from the roll of all students to help the office to check the correct number of students for whom we own the school.

The French in particular are slack in their methods in keeping while the Dutch are immaculate.

John Fields Dies Of Wounds Inflicted During The Altercation
At Versailles the party visited the Palace of 3,200 rooms where the world war peace treaty was signed, the Marseille Palace, the Marseille Valley and Belleau Woods. Except for a few relics, and trenches that section shows features of the French Revolution, the palace was also visited and Miss Locks marvelled at the marked differences between the French and the Dutch.
